    Aloha everyone and thanx for any input!! I found this forum while I was looking for a cleaner way to change my oil filter...Now I need an OME 3", some UCa's, and some tires. I found an OME kit with the 885 springs, dakars, etc for about $1300(After shipping-I'm on the Big Island) I was looking at 265/75R16 Pro Comp All Terrain. I've read mixed reviews, mostly good. We get about 130" of rain a year, and most of the offroading I do is on the lava trails or steep incline/decline. I have noticed that a lot people here don't care for Pro Comp's suspension components, but I have not seen much on their tires here in TW. 4 Wheel Parts has a sweet deal on the tires. Buy 3 get 1 free @ $217 each. That is where I am looking at the OME kit as well. Please chime in on price, quality of tires, and anything else. Thanks again!!:D

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    Not a fan of Pro Comp here. Tires don't last as long as a good set of BFG or Goodyears IMHO and they're too hard. I like Maxxis Bighorns, Goodyear Duratraks (currently running), and Nitto Terra Grapplers. All of which can be bought in that size at around the $200 per tire mark.

    @98tacoma27--Thanx for your thoughts. I was also checking out the Nitto Terra's, and the toyo open country AT. I'll look at the Duratraks too.

    I've heard nothing but good things about the Open Country's, just never ran them myself.
