Re: So you want to "Comp Cut" your paddle tires... Easy E, Thanks you and I think your right about the industry secrets. It can be really hard to the find information you need. You can be very proud of the job you've done. You took your time and did a fine job. We have some good craftsmen on this forum. A few years ago I went looking for information about tuning headers and exhaust systems. Nothing but dead ends, until I approached the problem from a different direction. It turned out that they work like a brass instrument. They are tuned to a specific frequency. Like a trumpet. The trick is not to give up, but, to stop back up, and try to find a different approach to the problem. |

Re: So you want to "Comp Cut" your paddle tires... I see in no way that you did anything wrong or different than anyone else. Actually, I think your cuts are better. Comp cuts on pro rigs only need to work for a limited time. thus they try to maximize the weight reduction. Air leakage is a byproduct sometimes. Between your cuts & their cuts the weight performance is not that much different. Well done! |

There is a fear factor, of cutting to deep and destroying the tire. The tools cut faster, than you'd think they would. Smells bad, don't it. I had a few Ooops moments. I used a grooving tool to add sipe cuts and grooves to my Big Horns. It was defiantly worth the time. I borrowed a tool from a friend. See.... https://www.redlineutvforums.net/a/32...-grooving.html ). The pro's cut the paddle tires clean down to the belts, but knowing many people with the full comp cut tires - they always seems to leak a bit of air. I was hoping for good air retention with the cut I tried...
