    Is it @jberry813 who has a good explanation on benefits or no benefits of the flip? I'm forgetting.

    Good to know, I had heard great things about them from quite a few of my friends, but I don't want paper thin sidewalls... Maybe I'll end up getting the STT Pros even though they are more expensive. I wheel all sorts of terrain, from mud, to rocks, to snow, to sand. The whole gambit really.

    Let me double check but yes I think I was sent both sets of plates. My first order got lost so I bought another set. The lost set got sent back and instead of refunding me they sent me both sets.

    Got the lights mounted today with some friends and these are definitely the best lights I've ever seen. They are bright but the optics are amazing too. If it isn't raining tonight I'll get some night shots. 36,000 effective lumens on the front bumper alone.
    They looked kinda photoshopped because of the aluminum backing in the light. Not plastic chrome like Amazon lights

    Dude are you running dual batteries? And are all of those running off one switch... only reason I am asking is because I'm getting some iggy pods and would consider these also for sure in the future. But I guess my concern is the wattage these draw off our batteries...not electronically savvy when it comes to the low voltage on our trucks yet

    Nope single battery haha i've debated on doing a double but I think you pretty much have to relocate something. Maybe when this battery craps out ill go dual.
    2 switches to my sPod. The outer 2 lights are a flood/warm white that are 60 degree. Not quite amber but pretty much what natural sunlight is like. The inner 2 are a spot/cool white that are 20 degree. My friend in the land cruiser has the same setup

    Okay cool. I edited my post but i wasn't fast enough. I'm stoked to hear that. I'm just going to run my pods off one switch I think.

    Oh oops haha I do want to replace my alternator soon but LED's draw a whole lot less so I wouldn't worry. I know @Greddy said he accidentally left his 2 LED pods on one time and went skiing, came back a few hours later and the truck still started. These do draw a bit more than the smaller LED pods that people run but our trucks can definitely handle it.

    Hopefully tonight if it isn't raining!
