Trashed a rim today

Well I was ripping around the forest on one of our sections and I was sliding around this corner on my shee. There was a rock under the snow covered up. Slid the rear rim/tire right into this big-ass rock going about 35. Pretty much stopped the rear end in place and kinda bucked me off. Bent the outside bead edge of the rim into... oh about the center-line of the rim. The cool part was that the tire just kinda went with it. Didn't blow out. I was amazed. Limped it back to the house in 1st gear going lump lump lump lump all out of whack. Going to pull the axle off and check to make sure its not screwed this weeked. So I am going to yank the rims / tires off my warrior and run them on the banshee. The shee needed new tires anyway. Ol well.

 

Anyone run 22" tires on a banshee? I have 22" I-Razr's on the warrior right now that I am going to put on the shee till I can get new rims / tires for it. Going to be a little faster, but slight loss of power since they are heavier and taller than my previous tires.

 

:flush:
