    Ok thanks. They’ve honestly worked out great for me. I rotate every other oil change and haven’t had any of the wear problems people complain about. Still considering Nittos for the next set.

    Oh I love them. Bummed they don't make them in a 37 since I'd like to jump up a size on my next set. Probably gonna give the cooper stt pro a try.

    Well never mind then


    I may get them soon so I can let you know. It's either that or the Wildpeak at3w -- I know they're dramatically different but apparently the new at3ws are surprisingly good for A/Ts and I don't really NEED M/Ts.

    I just need to find something that's good in snow. Which is why I've stuck with the duratracs for so long. They're good in any terrain

    Wrecked!
    Ive seen sidewalls on STT pros split as well as BFGs and Goodyear MTRs and duratrac. all tires split if if hit shit hard enough. The STT Pro was brand new less then 1000 miles on kinda sad to see such a new tire distroyed, friend following me hit a rock.Guess he didn't see that 12 round rock on the side of the trail. I ran durtracs for 40k miles zero issues they did great, 285 d rated. never ran fast in the desert but lots of rocks, and aired down to 8 psi many times.

    If it's stupid and it works, it's not stupid. At least you will have consistent spacing.

    1st gen 4WD LT guy’s using Tundra shafts. I have 1 aftermarket 1st gen Tundra shaft and it seats in my 3rd gen 4Runner hub just fine. However, I have 4 OEM Tundra shafts and they all stop at roughly this point.

    Ideas?
