    Wildpeak at3w 285/75R16. Alignment tech knows spcs well, so theres the added benefit knowing my alignment will be where it needs to be.

    Paying a little more overall than if I ordered the tires at discount tire direct, and having them mounted/balanced/aligned, but the convenience of having it all done in one stop is worth it to me.

    Dealership did a shit job with alignment last fall when I did the lcas, since they wouldn’t touch the spcs. The alignment has been my biggest concern- I thought I would have to take a day off to go up to Mass at built for east. While I like them, this saves me a day off and its local.

    They even gave me discounts I didnt qualify for to help with the pricing. Town fair for the win.

    Oh yea, and they sold me on the insurance when I asked if it would be covered if I gouged a sidewall offroading. Been there-done that.

    I need a raise… would only do it with a regear and a rear bumper with swingout so I can carry a full size spare. And to go with that, better rear leafs, and hammer hangers.

    And a daily driver that isnt the tacoma. Might be a few years haha.

    Happy hump day CT.
    Went to a couple local stores last night (bought shoes and clothes). The places were dead, nobody on the roads, it felt like a Sunday night. Where was everyone?

    Howdy howdy.

    Miata sprung a coolant leak from the turbo and some ding dong, me, bought the wrong size coolant hose to replace the leaking one with. Just need to get this back up and running before 30Jun. That day marks 10 years since I picked it up in Ohio and drove it back to Connecticut, a road trip which I will never forget :) . It didn't stay stock for long.
