Say something nice about TRAIL PRO"S

[Nightmare]

I thought this would be a fun thread, since I know it is so hard to say anything nice about the elusive trailproTRAIL PROtrailpro. Think of it just like when you and someone got into a fight as a child and were sat down in front of each other having to say something nice about the other one. LMAO.

This should be interesting to say the least. I am sure I know who will comment first.....

[jrwebb8324]

It sure seems like they last forever.

[cr480r]

they are a good way to waste an afternoon with a tire groover.... only to find that they still suck, weigh a ton, and are stiff as hell

[dcreel]

They make a great place to safely store your important belongings in case of fire, tornado, hurricane, or if all else fails.. nuclear winter..

[Vealmonkey]

Original equipment on the Tiger 500!!!!!!!

[muddog]

great if your a cheapskate and hate buying new tires

[Aregistereduser]

there the only thing in the world that has harmed chuck norris
so i spose their good at takin a beatin.

[skypilot]

take a lickin and keeps on tickin!

[dirtwheels]

I'm waiting for the concrete-filled exclusive Walmart limited edition. As we approach the second ice age, I know I will be ready.

[Nightmare]

^HAHAHAHAHA This is turning out to be a great thread! Where is fabiodriven?! He hates trailPRO's!

[zppeacock]

Only tires I have successfully ran 2 years with no air on my 200es.

[NINJA]

The knobby pattern spells out the word BOOB, boobs are nice.

[RDH/86200X]

you can put one under the engine cradle and get all three wheeles off the ground to change tires

[Chazz of Blades]

You can put them all over your VW Bug, and if it has the engine power to move after that, be more protected than a friggin tank.

It would be the boobmobile, and it would be deemed "Manly"

[Louis Mielke]

Definition: Trail Pro VS. Chuck Noris - An example of what happens when an unstoppable force comes up against an immovable object. Stalemate.

[cattle-dog]

they give reason for threads like this lol

[TrickShot]

Lifespan, I have yet to see a bald worn out trailpro

[Mosh]

Trail Pro's.


The choice of Tug boats and barges the world over. Plus when the Tug wears out, they can be re used on the new fleet of tug boats.

[DirtDevil]

When money is tight, they make the difference between ridin' or sitting in the house wishing you were ridin'..............................and, if you like to drift on packed dirt, they make it REALLY easy.......................and they spell BOOB.

[WIkid500]

Boobs are good! Trail pro's.... Well I've had a set on my ytm for ten years and they still look new!!!


This thread rocks!

[ratvespa]

they are great for setting sport bike motors on them so they don't tip over or scratch or the oil pan

[fabiodriven]

They make a great replacement bridge abutment.

[Thorpe]

Original "run flat" made for ATC's and ATV's...

[atctim]

They make great house foundations - they are a bit more expensive than cinder blocks - but will out last them buy centuries and are far superior in hardness and Boobness.

[Nightmare]

I guess it's my turn..... This is harder than I thought!
With out TrailPro's we wouldn't have this trailpro icon!

[swifty]

they give you a reason to talk the seller down because you are going to have to buy new tires even though they are brand new

[NINJA]

they give you a reason to talk the seller down because you are going to have to buy new tires even though they are brand new
:lol: That's the most logical reason I've seen posted so far.:lol:

[Nightmare]

Clearly at carlisle was a firm believer and participant of the early equal opportunity employment. This tire depicts that by spelling boob in the tread pattern.

[Dirtcrasher]

They're made for "PRO'S" :lol:

[atc350xer]

The best thing I can say about them is - I've never owned them :lol:

[MagicJames]

They are mildly flame retardant too, I caught some wood on fire and the trailpro was the last thing to go up in flames...

[Xpress]

They make good fire rings :lol:

[rasorroad250r]

They are a good desert tire for a low price.

[Billy Golightly]

Mining companies are now commonly re-facing the hammers in their rock crushers with trail pros due to their extreme hardness and longevity.

[tommerp]

Switch the letters up and you get: "La Rip Rot" or "Tar Or Lip" or (my favorite) "Oral Trip" ... you get the picture LOL

[Chazz of Blades]

You can drop a TrailPro from the top of the Empire State building, and kill a man in China.

[Mr_RPM]

You can drop a TrailPro from the top of the Empire State building, and kill a man in China.

that was awesome. made me actually "LOL"

[xlover]

they make your 3 wheeler run better cause the faster they wear them out the faster they get new tires

[thestud25]

Even though they are a by product from Sadam's Weapons of Mass Destruction, they are alomst indestructable. I heard that the US military is using them on the Humvees, since they are pretty much bullet proof!!

[Chazz of Blades]

The U.S. Marine Corps have hired Carlisle to produce an APC.

[fabiodriven]

Dirtcrasher often uses Trailpros as tooling in his lathe.

[mtsnieg]

I'm happy that a buddy is gonna pick up the pair of em I have sitting in my shed:lol:.

[Billy Golightly]

The U.S. Marine Corps have hired Carlisle to produce an APC.

! :lol::lol:

[atc350xer]

I'm thinking they should share the technology with the military/police... for body armor

[Orangecnty250r]

Original equipment on the Tiger 500!!!!!!!

Thanks Veal......and yes the 10 inch are discontinued!!!

[HondaRidr]

I think the trail pros will out last the machines

[83ATC185S]

they are good for trike security, i hide them in plain site. and when a thief comes to my yard and sees brand new tires,its all he can think about and takes them and bails

[CanadianThomas]

Good for keeping criminal types subdued until the cops come. Like Spiderman's webs, well in the old cartoon anyway.

[Chazz of Blades]

Tie a rope to them, and connect it to your ceiling. Hoist it up, and rig a tripwire.

Foolproof Security System.

[cr480r]

Good for slipping a disc in your back while trying to load the bike into your pickup.... After your back heals up you will probably bend your loading ramps..

Your dealership will void the warranty on your truck if they ever see the trailpro in the back...

[fabiodriven]

They make an excellent boat mooring.

[Nightmare]

Excellent tire for sharpening your knife.

[Chazz of Blades]

Excellent tire for.....AAHHH I CANT DO THIS!

[Xpress]

Good TV stand in the basement :lol:

[xlover]

good for target practice they will never get holes in em

[bugler30]

great for tearing the S trailpro trailpro t out of the front yard with your 200ES and royally pissing off the Mrs.

[NINJA]

Fact: trail-pros were invented during the cold war by Russia. A common Russian saying is, "trail-pros is like bear, and he doesn't afraid of anything."

[cr480r]

Excellent tire for sharpening your knife.

good one man

[Chazz of Blades]

FACT: They are the sickest tire in DAH WARLD

And now is the time of Dr. Carlisle

[Thorpe]

In times of war, trailpro can be used to construct bomb shelters...

[HONDALUVR]

great to tie around your car to protect you from deer or anything else for that matter ... your gas mileage will drop ... but protection is priceless

great for the weightlifting portion of your work out ... if you cant buy weights .... trail pros are the way to go ...

make great trot line sinkers ... kinda heavy to pull in but your line don't drift much ...

[oldskool83]

they dont need to have air in them, or even seat on the beat.

[Chazz of Blades]

Right now, Osama Bin Laden is hiding in a TrailPro somewhere,

[ForeverThreeWhe]

They come in the same color as my favourite tyre.

[CRAZY70MAN]

you can sight your gun in with one and then bolt it back on and drive off:lol: Your aircompressor will never be used with a set of these either, they need no air....the only thing in the world that can function with no air is a trailpro:shiftyeyes: http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/oo321/andyatc70/th_P8250008.jpg (http://s388.photobucket.com/albums/oo321/andyatc70/?action=view&current=P8250008.jpg) heidi the trailpro.

[Modding_out]

Hahahahaha you guys are serious? these things need no air from being so hard?. damm, I should get a set for run flats... any one got a free pair they want to give me?


Heard some were along the grape vine that archeologists reported finding trail pros in Pharaoh Tutankhamen burial horde...... But the locals made off with them in the night. 12 years later they found them attached to an ox cart......the 2000 year old tires still had fuzz

[Thorpe]

Hahahahaha you guys are serious? these things need no air from being so hard?. damm, I should get a set for run flats... any one got a free pair they want to give me?

Would have to go truck freight, on individual pallets due to the weight...

[Chazz of Blades]

Trail Pro's caused me to careen off a dirtroad curve, with no grip whatsoever, drop down 5 feet sideways, and trash an old quad I had. Never again.


2021: Carlisle has been hired by the United States DoD to create the new "non-explosive" Bunker Buster, having decided to use their old weapon of choice, the TrailPro. But due to the weight of a massive TrailPro, a new cargo chopper with 4 rotors was nessesary.

[the great gazoo]

They're good for getting you stuck in the mud! Haha. seriously, if I hadn't had these TP's in spare after I T-boned a Raptor in 5th gear & blew out the sidewall on my Dirt Dog, I wouldnt've gone on this awesome ride!

[Chazz of Blades]

Trail Pro's can make you have the best stories to tell.

[squirrel1182]

great for burnouts. never got to replace them!

[Chazz of Blades]

I tried to burnout and blow some TrailPros, and I ended up with two holes in the concrete.

[CRAZY70MAN]

Would have to go truck freight, on individual pallets due to the weight...

That one made me LMAO!! And sad part it is true!! lol

[H95Shooter]

if you run over a nail it doesnt mater there so cheap

[fabiodriven]

if you run over a nail it doesnt mater there so cheap

You've got a little studying to do. What you should've said is "If you run over a nail it doesn't matter. They can't pop." Even that isn't great though. The theme here is how hard Trailpros are, how awkward the tread design is, and how they don't wear out. It's OK though, you gotta start somewhere! Keep at it!

[Nightmare]

Sometimes TrailPros offend me..... Is that wrong?

[79fordblake]

There is a nail sticking out of the wall of the little shed I keep the 185s in and everytime I put it up I hit the nail on purpose and the trail pro is still fine its already flat anyway but doesn't look or feel like it.
I only have a trail pro on the front, if I am in wet grass or mud don't expect to go anywhere but straight.

[350XJEDI]

if your to fast, the pro's will slow you down

[H95Shooter]

okay her is another go if some one tries to slash your tires they would just dull there knife blade and wouldnt notice a differnce in the tires
better i hope so :rolleyes: haha but atleast i bumped this thread

[fabiodriven]

Much better grasshopper.:D

[TurboTacoma]

(This is my theory!) The trail pro's were designed to be so hard and so heavy..... because its all about marketing! They are what keep the aftermarket part suppliers in business! It is no wonder why we have to keep re-ringing our own engines ..... replacing our clutches ....and if we are lucky our brakes... once you get moving ....after burning up your clutches.... and destroying the piston rings .... to get your trike in motion!

[Chazz of Blades]

"Would you like to buy this Trail-Pro for $60, or this this other tire for $140?"

[TatTooL23]

should be able to do some nice donuts with the 22" set i have on the back of one of my odyssey's!

[NOS_350X]

This is a set i did up about a year ago, they do work well.
http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g285/NOS_350x/IMG_7095.jpg

[fmnrd]

They are great for overweight riders where weight is not a consideration .

Side note : so if you did not mark the sides of the tires with a white crayon you would have made a mistake and cut 2 rows:p

[bugler30]

This is a set i did up about a year ago, they do work well.
http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g285/NOS_350x/IMG_7095.jpg

that look like WAY too much work... lol. I'm sure it helps them not load up so bad though

[Chazz of Blades]

That picture is being used on Carlisle Trail-Pro's facebook page.

[NOS_350X]

Ya i sent it to them.

I run drags at my house and dont allow paddles, but i allow cut knobbies. I have several sets of traipros around so i just went to town. So far those have the fastest time on the track. We still need to take the tire groover and shave down the area where the knobs where removed to take out more weight. The worst part is they arent ballanced very well, and wobble when your doing 60-70 mph at the end of the track.

[captainweezy]

Just gave 16 of them away. Friendly ol boy said he wanted something to start a fire!:D

[GMCCOOKER]

nice redneck flower pot lol

[fmnrd]

don't know if this is nice but what the heck
" you know your a redneck when you Honda Civic has Trail pros on it "

oh here is something nice>> You can pave a one mile strech of road by recycling one tire!

[squirrel1182]

There so heavy put them on the back and you wont need wheel weights when pulin stuff.

[oscarmayer]

Trail pros are like old wine, turn sour with age! LOL
the older they et the harder they are. Hrmm sounds like a set of fake boobs i've seen latley! LOL

[Chazz of Blades]

A plastic surgeon recently cut chunks of trail pro's and forged them into two massive Super-Boobs to be implanted into Pamela Anderson.

[bcredneck]

bull$h!t you cant cut trailpros

[Chazz of Blades]

Lemme rephrase, the took one trailpro, attached it to a grinding wheel, and ground chunks of trailpro off of another trailpro.


Better?

[Xpress]

Yes, because everyone knows you can only cut one trailpro with another trailpro.

[MTS]

don't know if this is nice but what the heck
" you know your a redneck when you Honda Civic has Trail pros on it "

:lol::lol: Thought Instantly of my friends Civic..It could use a few trailprotrailpro
http://s644.photobucket.com/albums/uu168/MTS310z/?action=view&current=004.mp4

[Chazz of Blades]

A civic couldn't turn 4 trail pros!

[bcredneck]

i still call bs grinding a trailpro with a trailpro could cause a thermo nuclear exposhion and kill us all

[Xpress]

Na, you need to get the trailpro at the right rpm before you can slowly shave through the other trailpro.

[NOS_350X]

Na, you need to get the trailpro at the right rpm before you can slowly shave through the other trailpro.

Or you get Chuck Norris

[bcredneck]

chuck norris would get his @$$ kicked by a trailpro

[atctim]

Chuck Norris eats trail pros and poops out boat anchors!

[bcredneck]

but seriosly whats so bad about a indesructible tire even if there heavy my 350 would spin them easy and there cheap i really dont see the whole problem with that i like stuff built to last

[atctim]

bcredneck - you are obviously missing the point. You could make a better handling / looking / light tire from old bed frame rails!

[tommerp]

bcredneck - you are obviously missing the point. You could make a better handling / looking / light tire from old bed frame rails!

^^^^^^^^ True dat!

[Chazz of Blades]

I don't doubt his abilites.As an official true redneck(Sorry, BC, your too far north), I hereby grant the title of Reddest of Necks to Bcredneck. Congrats my amigo.

[1984 honda 200s]

when i bought my 200s, there was a set of trail pros on the back, im thinking over 20 years old these tires are!!, 1 is still good the other, has one hell of a hole in it. if anybody has ONE trail pro thay'd like to get rid of, PM me. id like ONE trail pro to match my other good one. to keep as spairs.

[bcredneck]

trailpros on a hard tail would be way to painfull to ride on trails

[shortbus]

Can do sweet 360's in any yard LOL.

[Brockey]

Trail pros make good blasting mats!

[jordan_muirhead]

they make excellent jack stands for my uncles big rig

[Chazz of Blades]

When we had a foot and a half of snow for a week, two trail pros in the bed of a truck kept it from sliding.

[cr480r]

during the 2 months i rode with trail pros... I had no worries of contracting any std's or unplanned pregnancies.. With the money i saved on dates i was able to buy some holeshots...

[Chazz of Blades]

They should line rental cars with trailpros.

That limits the speed to 30 mph, and also avoids the need for insurance.

[bigworm626]

Didn't they use a stripe of this tire on the video "California Love" with TuPac. I also got to see it on Wesley Pipes in the movie "Judge Dredd as a jacket of some type..

[Brockey]

Cheap bullet proof jacket.

[jordan_muirhead]

only things ive ever seen on the side of the road with a sign that said "FOR FREE"

[bcredneck]

Chuck Norris eats trail pros and poops out boat anchors!
no i just checked chuck norris has trail pros on his truck

[Backfire]

no i just checked chuck norris has trail pros on his truck


yeah they just rolled up one day, killed his other tires right in the open, and molded onto the wheels. saw it on the news and i had to go comfort my three wheeler after it had nightmares about losing its tires like that

[Chazz of Blades]

Chuck Norris doesn't drive a truck.


He drives a Tanktopusomobile. It's eight tanks formed together into one Super-Tank.



Hey BcRedneck, I think I've found your next project.

[350XJEDI]

:idea:putting trailpros on my truck :crazy:,run flat, good for 100,000,000 miles , better then anything goodyear sells. lol:lol::lol:

[bcredneck]

my dad was going to turn his ford festiva into a hunting veicle by lifting it and striping out the interior after he saw this were putting trail pros on it

[atc350xer]

Chuck Norris eats trail pros and poops out boat anchors!

Which can then get melted down and recycled into more trail pros

[Backfire]

Chuck Norris doesn't drive a truck.


He drives a Tanktopusomobile. It's eight tanks formed together into one Super-Tank.



Hey BcRedneck, I think I've found your next project.



tanktopusmobile is actually a limo with trailpros cut in half at one end ( it took many man hours and roundhouse kicks) and the tires stretched over the body, the bolted and chained on. then a V20 motor is dropped in.

[ATCrider42]

Trail pros are made from moon rocks. From the mooon. :acr

[Xpress]

The presidents limo uses trailpros as they're bullet proof, bomb proof, and nuclear proof.

http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/9237/preztrailpro.jpg

[bcredneck]

they should make him a trailpro suit

[Xpress]

And trailpro shoes.

[350XJEDI]

:D :lol::lol:lmao:lol::lol::w00t::beer

[Chazz of Blades]

Then he wouldn't be able to move.....

[RubberSalt]

I ran over a nail - didn't go flat... a year later I took a chunk out of my moms driveway with a trail pro.

I thought about remaking the souls of my boots.. they would be the last pair of boots I'd ever need, and they would say boob!
I replaced the spare tire in my car with a trail pro. If it goes flat, then i obviously hit another trail pro and have another spare :)

[oscarmayer]

trailpros are better than women, Then enver get out of round and always look like you just got them. ;)

[350XJEDI]

:naughty:my trailpro;s are free ;), every parts bike i ever got had at least one :wondering and they are like new big selling point !! :lol::beer:twisted:

[oscarmayer]

If I decide to build a work shop, I can use TrailPros to make the walls out of and it will be Tornado proof!

[Xhumeka]

Trailpro's are PERFECT for fishtailing because they provide ZERO traction (except at the worst times)!


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYcnoEgmJ1g

[JoeyStacks]

Wow that roll came out of nowhere

[cr480r]

My guess is the rollover was due to the excessive centrifugal forces produced by the trail pros..

[Xpress]

My guess is the trailpros didn't like the weather, so they decided to take it out on you.

[Chazz of Blades]

You notice the SX flips completely over? The snow was TIRED OF THAT SHIYAT DADGUMMIT!! They'd had enough.

[RubberSalt]

After reading this thread, i went out to ride my honda, it had a flat trail pro - i checked with a sledge hammer, it was flat. - rode like it was full of air! lol

[OZQUAD44]

Best thing about Trailpros.....

They're not sold in Australia.....

[Chazz of Blades]

I think you've mistaken piles of old trailpros for rock piles though.



And Trailpros are what you Aussies should be lining your houses with right now!

[OZQUAD44]

yes your right.

your family can safely huddle in the carcass of a Trailpro and wait out the storm.

*A bit of fun with all due respect those people who have lost so much in the terrible floods and cyclones that have affected so many.

[Xhumeka]

Wow that roll came out of nowhere

Tell me about it! That ATC picked me up and threw me to the ground for no reason at all - I was starting to think the ATC-haters were right and these things are super dangerous when I realized, no - wait... it's the TRAILPROS!!!! ;)

[hoosierlogger]

It takes a tanker full of crude oil to make 1 trailpro . Thus resulting in the huge profits to the oil companys.

[Chazz of Blades]

That there honda near done killded him!

[79fordblake]

Tell me about it! That ATC picked me up and threw me to the ground for no reason at all - I was starting to think the ATC-haters were right and these things are super dangerous when I realized, no - wait... it's the TRAILPROS!!!! ;)

Did it come up and hit you in the head when it bucked you off? lol

[Xhumeka]

Did it come up and hit you in the head when it bucked you off? lol

To the ATC's credit, no - it did not "pound me on my head". However, it DID steal my wallet :(

lmfao - don't think I missed you're reference to "hitting you on the head". If I'm right, you were referring to Frank Cooperstein's quote on 60 minutes regarding the ATC he bought for his son, and how "that machine turned upside down and pounded him on his head. It did it." (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1I5DweHlnQ#t=2m43s)

(click above URL for his quote in the 60 minutes video that helped put into motion the ATC descent decree)
