    I paid $300 CAD to have my wheels blasted, sanded and PC'd. I think that was a pretty good deal and they have held up very, very well. I originally rattle-canned them but botched it badly.

    Tires are GY Duratrac, 265/70/17's.

    I went with 20% gloss just recently on these FJ's for my taco. Kind of between flat and satin.
