    Ahhh... I miss them. Oh wait! I still have them!

    To me getting 35's was like getting a boob job for my truck. The 33" (true 33"- most 285's I've measured are 32.25 - 32.5") were fine. They didn't look proportional because my truck is a hefty gal. They seemed natural though, fit well, and handled most situations just fine. The 35's are a bit akward, put a lot of stress on the components, required some surgery, and it feels like something is going to break at any moment. And forget about jogging...

    But they do seem to attract a lot of attention and all the boyz seem to like them. I feel a little more confident too. But now I'm worried that my truck is trying to be something it's not, and that they are the only thing people will associate it with. They stick out too far and I'm tired of telling people, "Hey buddy, my eyes are up here". They're always staring at them...

    So my truck wears a 35 E now and it will just take a little more getting used to. Might as well flaunt them. Don't even get me started on the attention the backside of my truck is getting...

    I'd key it, but it looks like they wouldn't GAF. Maybe just slash the tire and go on about your day with a smile?

    Biguns are fun to look at on other people's rides but I prefer a handful to own.

    Those who cycle!



    My doc just opened up my 'approved' workouts. And it includes cycling. I still cant run but I'm looking a getting a bike. But it's been YEARS. I can't decide between a mountain, road, or hybrid. Anyone care to give info on any? Recommend models? Im6'4" 230. 35" inseam so I need the taller models.


    Thanks in advance!

    Some really cool shit
    Depends on what your options are as far as places to ride. I never wanted to have to throw my bike in the truck to go to ride. So, for me, a road bike was the choice. If you have trails close by, a hybrid, or mountain bike might be nicer.

    Sorry about the lame response. I had my hands full, and didn't want to leave you hanging.
    I'm down to hit that place up. I love the food and beer selection. Not much free time lately, but I'm sure something will work.

    Nah, showing them how shitty they parked is satisfaction to me. I was there second. No fucks given if they scrape their way out on my slider.
