    Rugged Ridge looks like it'd be an option for when my boyfriend gets a job again :eek: haha.

    When's the meet and greet? I was unaware of such shenanigans.

    warranty?? just get it patched. Any hole smaller than 1/2 inch tires shops will patch as long as they aren't to close to the side wall. Not that i have to worry about that, I got sick of tires shops bullshit rules and just bought my own tire machine so now i just take care of my own shit with no BS like the well that looks like it's to close to the side wall speech.

    yeah that's sweet. We just got a discount tire here in Pocatello and have been building business relations with them. Just Put a set of snow studded tires with rims on my fiances 2011 Corolla S for $300.

    How do you hold up in summer heat in 90s and triple digits? That's a bit warm for comfort but part of the weather in the area too. Getting below 20 is a little on the chilly side of things too.

    I'm also a West Side transplant from WA. Didn't you come from Olympia area? I was farther north, Bothell through Everett.

    I am a fan of discount tire. They warranty everything they sell, and get better pricing on it than I can find anywhere else. Can't find the tires you are looking for on their website, call them and ask. If you can find it on Tirerack, they can order it in and sell it to you.

    I spent plenty of time around there. My wife used to work at the VCA on Cedar just south of where it turned east to cross State St.

    Nope. Without plenty of snow we wouldn't have enough irrigation water in the summer.

    Well, you do live at 3k feet elevation with the Sawtooth and Rocky Mountain ranges as your neighbors.

    Send it my way. I got 6 inches overnight, then everything warmed up to shorts weather, so about 40, and a lot melted away. I still have more in my yard, but Spokane proper has bare and wet roads for the most part.

    I did find one spot where the road looked bare and wet getting on the freeway, then my back end kicked out on me about 40 mph. I had an Oh Shit moment where I wasn't sure I would be able to get the truck pointed back in the right direction, but it worked out okay.

    I'm stuck over in Jackson and need to get a pair of my tires replaced on DT's insurance. The closest DT is over 100 miles away... you think they'd be willing to ship them to the big O that's in town?

    Yeah, I just can't drive 130 miles on flat tires to have them inspect them, then drive back to do my job for 2 weeks while I wait for the tires to get freighted to DT, then drive back to DT still on flat tires for install.

    Lol, anything above -20 is irrelevant when there's no wind. Depending on wind, 30 can be brutal.
