I was wondering how hard it would be to make a Evo VIII capable of doing some light off roading. By that I mean mostly the beach, and muddy river beds. It was just curious to find out if Evo's do good in the Sand and mud.

 

Dude......

The EVO is a rally car, IDK how much you know about the history behind it , but i suggest you look it up.... (its actually pretty interesting)

The EVO was made with one thing in MIND = Rally therefore will perform great in sandy , wet and hostile conditions...

Just keep in mind, your car is not prepped as the Rally cars are... So dont be pulling no GIGI stunts, catching 6 FT of air, and expecting your car to be cool w it... hahaha

I know that the Evo is a rally car, but I wasnt sure if it could go out on the beach with stock tires and not get stuck.

 

There is actually a thread on here some where. Where a couple guys met up and went to like a sandy/beachy area and did a photo shoot and messed around even raced on it. if I can find it ill link it up. it looked like they did pretty well. And what happen to my other post?

 

If you plan on doing off-roading you should look into a set of tires other than summer performance ones. Even a M+S rated all-season would be better.

 

I think that is what he meant by asking what it will take to make it a rally car. haha
but the car should be fine, ive been at sandy places and i have no problems, as well as any other type of wheather

 

That would be awesome. I'll look for it as well.

I started a different Thread because no one seemed to see it.

Yeah i'm just really interested in finding out what I need to go out on the beach and not get stuck. My buddy bet me $20 i couldn't, because I gave him crap about getting his 2 wheel drive jeep stuck.

 

Yea I wouldnt go with the stock advans lol, get at least a good set of all-seasons and some mud flaps to protect your paint.

I go all the time in the mud and have never had a problem (other then mud caked in my wheel making it feel like the tire was flat lol)

 

What Tires do you guess suggest

 

dude something that will grip in dirt......

idk if you are going to buy tires make sure you get some like this........ hahaha!
