    the only bad part about the large bores is that they go to the inside against the drum. When you mount the tire/wheel up on the truck take a crowbar and push in the very end of it using the beadlock stud for leverage to pry it out so you can get the chuck on it in the future while on the truck...

    They will stay on the wheel even without them. It actually is an advantage on tires to not have them if you drive em for alot of miles so when it does blowout it does come off the wheel easy rather than a seized up alligator. Every 1600 i have had go has blown small holes in the sidewall...

    You will want to keep an eye on your front tires. The concrete expansion joint roads will do massive damage to them. Compared to the AT3s the XZLs take major damage on steer tires

    I have these large bore types. You just have to fill the tires from the inside on the rear. Not a big deal if you time them up right for easier access. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?187436-Large-Bore-Valve-Stems-for-Combat-Wheels&highlight= Most military type valve stems will...
