You can't even deflate the tire if needed.In a time of chimpanzees, I was a penguin.

Problem is I already have a classic rangy and a 110 with muds on and we are only using the D3 to promote the event and try to raise awareness as it will be the first one to enter the event(We had an x5 on it two years ago pathetic or what). Last year we raised 67k with 60 vehicles. So budget will not allow for wheels and tyres at £600. It was suggested i fit p38 wheels do they fit ?ONE LIFE LIVE IT!!.

Yes you can ran them at 20 /25 psi with no problems at all, they did suffer a bit of sidewall 'pinching' at lower pressures though, but I suppose the extra weight of all the kit didn't help...
