I wonder what tires they are using...

Other than winch and roof rack, everything should be bone stock, including the 19" tires visible in some of the photos.

Ya, those look like 13' Lux wheels like I have. Amazing that they do it on those Conti's ...

That's why each vehicle carries 2 spares... Still, if they make it through the Nevada desert with less than 2 flat Contis each, they should make an extra quick detour to a church and thank the Lord, light a candle or something.

When they had the big dealer event out in Utah for the new fullsize, they had to airlift a bunch of the new Goodyear tires fom NJ. They were cutting them down left and right...

I would be nervous driving in the Sierras or the Nevada desert with my Coopers! The rocks are like sharp shards of glass! Yikes.
