Being facetious, many say you need skinny, bald, or little tread tyres for sand, there is a pic of my little girl in soft sand, leaving tread marks, where the proir vehicles, that I have no idea of make, are leaving, normal, very deep sukubus marks. But of course, im still getting larfed at by the expert, What vehicle went before, how the fuk would I know, I went there to see if someone had been there, and to show, the diff twix my tread, and width, against "normal" that are designed for sand.

I hang my head in shame for doing this stupid thing.

When I was a lad, working the simson desert, 900x16 diamond pattern was the sand tyre of choice, as there was no other, no wide or tall, just standard. Bogged like nothing else.

Man, I've driven at Fraser and seen the idiots bogged at Indian Head. I've driven up Past Hedland when it's 45c and the sands like oil, but that sugar sand around Hopetoun where the Beaches are at 30 degrees and the tides comming in scare the begeezus out of me, even in a sierra.
5 psi and still dragging diffs like a dog with worms!!!
