my buddy has basically your same setup on a 2nd gen and when we went snow wheelin last year they carved right through the snow they were like paddles shoveling the snow out it was pretty cool.

are you locked front and rear?

[greenjacob]

just rear ya idk i mean the snow sucked its weeks old but flopp i could not go anywhere i could do way better with stock street tires i think

[bigarms23]

[greenjacob]

did you have them aired down

X2... my buddy has some 37 boggers and they seemed like they did really well in the snow. He was raving about them.

[IronClad]

yep   air them down and they flat out get it in the snow.  helps if you groove the piss out of them too

Well I'm glad they've worked for you but my experience with them is that I'd rather walk then try to drive with them.  I always lost beads and they were scary as hell on a side hill because they might as well have been slicks with no lateral grooves.  The only thing I didn't do was groove mine up when I had them.  With some lateral grooving and taking more weight off the carcass they might flex enough to work in the snow and add sidehill stability.  I will stick to my IROK's and Toyo's for the snow.  BOGGERS SUCK  IMHO

yep im going to trade my boggers for iroks

I don't want to be mean, Did you put them of backwards...some are directional. Should not make much of a change...Is there ice under the snow?

I know they are directional.  There wasn't any ice under the snow either.  I will post of pictures to give you all an idea how bad I hated them.  I ended up selling them to my buddy and he hates them even more than I did. Boggers were made for one thing and one thing only  MUD.  They do awesome as long as you are just going straight and not trying to sidehill at all.  Just look at the design there isn't anything that give it lateral grip.  They are just paddles.
