Well I didn't make it far with the truck..

this wheel I welded a safety bead on but with no wire, it didn't work out as well. Blew off at 2psi on the outside.
The other 3 held up fine though (had the small wire welded on), Just need to weld a piece of wire on the bead and it should be good again.
Luckily it happened in the first 10ft of snow, so I just backed up to the dirt.


but I still made it to the top on skis
