    Flexing at My Mom's new place. I went up to help with some spring chores and couldn't resist having a little fun.

    Haven't been to the swap meet in about 12 years. Maybe it's time to go again. Screenshot_20220502-083007_Facebook.jpg

    In the rain, great. Pushed them hard in the dry, fantastic for an aggressive AT. In a deceptively steep, rutted, and muddy section combined with xmode 2 they did very well. Only downside is they are fairly noisy. Regret would be far too strong of a word BUT if a tire shop offered a free swap to another tire like maybe a toyo at3 I would probably take them up on it

    2 questions
    How big of a tire will fit without rubbing?
    Does RCI make skid plates and sliders for it?

    Speaking of RCI - if anyone is considering buying their skid plate package for the new catalytic converter guards be aware their existing trans skids DO NOT have the holes pre-drilled for mounting it up. I've emailed with them about this as there is no way the customer would have any ability to know this as their website makes it seem like holes should be drilled. I don't mind drilling holes but dagnabit if I pay for a nice powdercoated product expecting holes to be there they better be there!

    Ahh they changed it now. Looks like my email suggestions payed off for everyone else at least.

    Edit: Here is specifically what it said before they just updated it to show how it was (in my opinion) misleading: "Direct bolt on addition to existing factory attachment points, no drilling required!" That's it. No way to tell you'd be required to drill if ordering today. Glad they fixed it.

    Just stop giving terrible YouTube clowns the views. Garbage people don't deserve the attention.
