...aaand one of my KO2s didn't balance.

I get to hang out another hour or so here waiting for them to source another and get it on the truck. Thus I get to annoy you all for another hour!

 

Hm.
Hopefully I don't have any hopping or vibration on my way home tonight, then.

 

Just avoid hitting things and you should be golden.

 

I know you have that extra wheel for sale, any chance of renting it out so I can design a Rock ring for it and have some made if my uncle says he can do it?

 

Seems like a solid plan in general, really...
What'd you hit?

 

I had to look it up for my truck. 320 horsepower and 335 lb-ft of torque. I don't know if that is good or not for V-8's but it drives and pulls good for me.

 

Shouldn't be an issue. The only interest I seem to be getting right now are people on FB who cannot read the title, description or look at photos to discern it's (1) wheel and not (4).

Nothing recently. My luck has always been people hitting me. I did bang my hand pretty decently at work the other day, that count?

 

While you're in that area stop by the " Black Hat Brew Works " Hmmm

Yup.

 

I don't drink, so I can't comment, but everyone I know that has been to the brewery has liked it. I've been there with the wife and friends and they all enjoyed it. It's about the strongest praise I can give given my background.

 

Only if it threw off the balance on your tires...

 

Then no. I'm getting a new set on new wheels. I'm 30 miles from home and the wife is oot and aboot with family, so I'm stuck here with you nutjobs. Entertain me, dammit.

 

The 6.2 puts out like 420hp, though.

 

Sweet I'll let you know.

 

I am trying to figure out if I want to get another set of wheels for winter and run dedicated snows like I usually do or get something aggressive like KO2s or even Noakin Rotiivas to replace the stock Michelins.

 

I saw the General Grabber ATX at the local tire shop a few weeks ago and they are snow rated which was tempting over a set of dedicated snows. I will be running a winter set regardless on my stock wheels, so teh question when my Hankooks either age/wear out is do I go with an AT with snow ability or a dedicated snow. I'm in the same conundrum you are. With how susceptible Toyota wheels are to corrosion, I don't want to run these new wheels in winter.

 

FWIW, the F150 with a set of Wrangler AT Adventures was a tank in the snow. We went to Farmington in the middle of a blizzard on Christmas Day with 4-6 inches of standing snow on the roads with zero problems. So I would think that any decent set of AT's would fit the bill for you.

 

Farmington eh? I'll be up that way at the end of next month

 

well im going to create a thread later to gauge interest but he says he can do it and should be cheaper than the ones level 8 has. Level 8 charges 64 for 2 so i think if we aim for 50-75 for a set of 4 we could have something fingers crossed maybe this will help pay for daycare

 

Almost all modern non high performce cars come with a super mild cam with the intention of falling on it’s face around 4.5k to conserve fuel
