Hi,
I´m new here came from Germany and would like to trip to Primm Nevada...
But to don´t have to carry too much of equipment with me, i´d like to get the tires inside USA.
Is there also someone who can recife them for me near Primm/Las Vegas if i find someone who sell these to me?
And how much tires i do will need for two weeks kiting? my Buggy is really heavy, it have arround 120pounds....and then my weight with 170...
Help me please....

How many tires you will go thru depends on how hard you want to ride. With the playa surface being rather abrasive I have seen tires worn down within
a couple of hours (very aggressive riding) or if just doing speed runs without much scrubbing, can last for days.
I can easily set ya up with a set or two of some 480, 4-plys that I'll bring and let them go for $8 a piece.

Ya, that sounds fine, i like more to get on speed, but i have now experience how the tires resit by a race (in triangle or so)
and the next thing my buggy do have very slow stearing angle(45°), i mean the higest top in fron is the wheel...so when i´m turning the front tire is
sliding more as usally...
but o.k. i think if some more over me what u did, i will find my way
...the rear axle on the pic is a old one which never exist anymore...
