Northern Virginia Roll Call

I actually got the EZ valve...it doesnt have a nipple on it but I bought the extra nipple attachment that you can screw on before draining.

 

I think it'd look good if you followed your existing lines. You did a good job on that one. Something like what I did below.

 

Thanks for the input! Ive been thinking about that. Im pretty sure what i dont like about the bumper is that corner so now its just how it gets cut off

Edit: ive also thought about cutting the edge off where it meets the flare...like this

 

I like!

 

Anyone have any recommendations for tire installation? Preferably closer to Arlington but I don't mind driving if it's cheaper or better service. Mr. Tire said it's $20 per tire and $16 per tire for TPMS.

Also, do you guys know if I need to do the TPMS kit if I am keeping the same wheels?

 

WTF $16 bucks for TPMS why?

 

I think it was a rebuild kit. It makes sense if I had new wheels but not really if I’m keeping the same ones. I need to call them back to see what it’s for exactly.

 

the place out here charged me $109 to:

pull TPMS out of my stock wheels,
put said TPMS on new wheels
mount and balance new tires on new wheels
put new valve stems in old stock wheels.

$150 seems high

 

Yeah that’s what I was thinking. I’m working from home today so I’ll call around.

There’s a place in Alexandria called Overland 4x4. Looks like they started with Land Rover but also specialize in Toyota and Hummer now. Kind of want to go there just for the name haha

 

I think it would look sweet trimmed where you have it taped.

 

DO NOT use Virginia Tire & Auto!

 

Thems sum rusty UCAs!

 

Haha noted, I’ll stay away from them

 

Those assholes took 4 hours to mount/balance my tires and never even asked if I wanted my TPMS swapped to the new tires.

 

Anyone have a GoPro 5 I could checkout?

 

What ups suckers, just been out playing the dream!

 

From what I understand the TPMS has to be removed when messing with tires, so they "rebuild it which is just various rubber washers and stuff like that.

Don't know how far this is from you but they have outstanding reviews and my friend has highly recommended them.

That’s not too far. I used to live a lot closer. I’ll give them a call though and see what the price is. Thanks!
