yup. got to make hard choices sometimes.
I actually like the R4 tires. just when they fail me it literally can be very dangerous to me.
I may invest in small wheel spacers to offset the slightly narrower tire but I need to test stability before spending more of wifes money.
forgot to mention along with clay I, since in Maine, have a lot of pre-ledge/ledge sharp rocks which is why I specifically sought out 10 ply.
if I was only able to find, say, 6 ply I may have made different choices.
sigh now onto fronts. so far only thing I see are 4 ply in this size so....got to make careful choices.
also, fwiw, I use a 1532 often which has ag tires so can see how they worked in my scenarios. while the difference between a 1532 and a gc24000 are massive how tires act in certain situations can be tracked and compared.
