Slabs for the more recent videos. Spyderlocks before them.

There is no such thing. The first picture are Spyderlocks. The second picture are Slabs.

I think...think the Spyderlocks are 20s and the Slabs are 17s in the pictures.

ATX is the manufacturer of Spyderloc Wheels. The only thing that makes a Spyderloc is its ring which has a star in it. As cool as they look, we moved away from them because they get hung up in rocks and tree roots and once they get bent in, they throw off your balance. The ATX Slabs only have the ring and are the best you can get.

This is correct. The Spyderlocs we were running were 20" wheels and we did this so we could run 40x15.50 Toyos. We are now running 17" Slabs with 40x13.50 Nittos.

Right. I didn't explain/word it correctly to him that both are ATX but different rings.

17s look the best, IMO. :yup:

I still miss the super wide stance of the Toyos. It just looked so good.

Yeah, I knew what you were saying. I just wanted to clarify it just in case.

The 17's look great but I really do miss my 20's and wish more 40's were made in that size. They really are the best fit for a 40 just like a 17 is a great fit for a 37.
