BIG ISLAND HI Thread

Whiplash?

I almost traded my 05 for a 02 with 30k miles and two 6" fabtechs welded together then had stacked coilovers too. Throw my 44s on um and drop some panties.


if Bulletproof was gonna pay for everything, i'd pay half for shipping, then spend a weekend with their cameras or media team testing the shit out of it. Bends my frame or fucks up my truck(rolls/crashes)...ah pau! if the front suspension goes to shit...well, on to the next set up!

 

A'ole.
My large socket set is sitting in my friends shop next to the km2s I got from Cody.


And I bought myself a Lincoln 185 welder...its still sitting new waiting for me to figure out how to weld.

 

Learn how to weld then ill pay you in beer to help me weld my spindle gussets

 

cheeee heeee. fueled by beer, energized by sashimi/sushi.


I really do wanna learn how to weld better. Never took the time in school and stuck with the bird shit shit I did know. When you coming back again, man?

 

Probably wont be back with any free time till summer in may

Finding it hard to focus on school haha

 

Thats coming up rather quickly.

Focus on school. truck can come later.

 

^^^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^^^^

 

yeah, I gotta start doing that

might be on here a little less than usual

 

got a new gf?

just heard the first thunder. flash flood since yesterday to today but no rain, yet. here it comes.

 

Looking for 33"or35"s let me know if any one get for sale or trades

 

what kind of 33"s do you guys like to run?

 

depends on what kind of tire you want

 

Prefer a A/T but wouldent mind a mud tire

 

33x12.5R15 no wider then a 12.5

 

does the brand matter like bf goodrich, firestone or other?

 

different people have different experiences with tires

BFG AT KO all terrains are super popular can't argue their performance on/offroad
goodyear wrangler duratrac's are another popular AT. Awesome tread design, newer than the BFG but some people have had problems with sidewall punctures.

I used to run michelin LTX AT/2's, those were pretty awesome too. Onroad, they were the quietest tire i've ever run, had good offroad grip and they last forever too.

as far as M/T's go, kinda the same companies are popular, different people will say the tires they're running are "best"

I ran toyo M/T's awhile ago, good offroad grip but loud onroad

then I moved to BFG KM2's, those were awesome. Quietest onroad MT there is, great mud/offroad grip too; but wet road grip sucked

Now I'm running goodyear wrangler MT/R Kevlars. Pretty awesome tire design, a little louder onroad than the KM2's but just as good offroad

 

right on. the only tires ive really ran on any of my tacomas have been bfgs. either the stock all terains or the onroad offroad ko ones. but open to other brands. i have to say, no complaints with the bfgs.

 

I used "Awesome" way too many times in that description...

there's lots of info on tires in the wheels/tires section

 

I went with the MT/R's cause I hadnt seen them on a 1st gen here..

 

yah, cool i have read a lot of good things about those mt/r's
