Re: WTF..Damm It..!!!! GD Tire Cover...Is It Me..???
Best way I found to install the Bestop was to pull it completely over the top of the tire, then work it downward with the fingers. Why no draw cord? The majority never liked the drawcords on older style covers, because they would come loose over a period of time. Let's face it, how often will you remove the cover, if you don't do a lot of off-roading? Most will put it on, and forget about it until they trade in the vehicle.

Does your rig have the 33" Tires..??
You Know.. I did try it that way.. I put it on at the top and tried to work it around. When I got near the bottom... it just wouldn't go any more ..!! I mean it just locked up. That dam felt type material grabs like hell on the rubber tire.
It's on now... so screw it. Come April I'm headen out to Paragon Park for the HUMMER Thang to chunk some mud.. I'll take it off before I go. Then When I come back , I'll put on the new Gay Hard Cover I Got. If I don't like what it looks like I'll sell it to a Jeep owner...

Thanks Big Z... Might work well on the 30" tire but on the 33''s it's still a PITA... Tried it before...she's a no go over the tire easy..

I guess that it would be a "no go" if you have anything larger than a 33" then? But then again those that have 35"+ aren't the type to need tire covers!
