    No.. I messaged Vin today to see if he could give me a rough estimate of when it'll be released because I don't want to get the F5's and then the following week find out Im in love with the Ray 10's.

    Exactly, not even sure it'll be offered in 16". Its a fancy sounding name (makes me think of Ray Bans) which makes me think it'll be more like the stealth 6, like more spokes and not as "rugged" looking as the F5 and SR8.. If that makes sense.

    I guess I could live with either size but a second set with k02s would be nice for DD

    You'd need new wheels anyway if you go to 37's. I don't think I will because I drive too much to trails and different places, I'd hate the mileage more problems come with 37's.

    Free powder coating, free shipping, and a free t-shirt :D (also in aluminum) should be here in 3 weeks or so. Temp solution until I have my own place and can store a full bed rack somewhere.

    haha yeah, can't beat your deal on the front bumper.

    I like pelfery built but fuck shipping is crazy, and I can get CBI front powered coated and winch, for the cost of getting pelferys coated and shipped to my house.

    I like synthetic, but not sure I'm sold, a field repair would suck compared to a steel line.

    You think? You can easily tie synthetic line in a knot or something if it breaks, but the breaking strength is also a lot higher. I mean theres a reason they make recovery straps out of rope versus steel cables.

    True, never thought of a knot. I've seen people splice synthetic lines and it doesn't look like fun if your on a trail.

    yeah it looks easy on a bench, i'm just thinking in the rain or snow, doesn't look like fun. I wonder if anyone has tied a knot and it worked?
