Boggers on the street?

Well I'm thinkin of grabbing some 33" boggers that are for sale for a real good price. My rig is my dd, but I go mudding quite a bit and to the MX track almost every day which is a slop hole (all the 2wd's get stuck). I'm thinking of running the boggers as my normal tire for around town, to the track, short stints on the highway here and there, just my dd tire for the summer. (no long commutes to school or work, cause work is close and school is about to end). Don't really care how fast they wear cause they are so cheap. I'm gonna keep the stocks for long trips. Think it's doable?

If you get em for a good price go for it!! They aren't as bad on light trucks like ours as the horror stories everyone says about them on heavier trucks.

I have a min spool in the rear, everyone said they are terrible (on other forums) on the road, mine is fine. I am thinking about boggers as well, but I may settle on TSL's...we'll see.

Take lots of pics!!!!

And they are fine on the road and longs trips, they just get cold spots, thats my only complaint. They are super loud too.

boggers make a cool sound when powerbraking. It makes even a better sound when powerbraking in reverse!......

only problems with boggers is you need hp to spin them, on rangers they tend to dig instead of push
