    I considered a GS after watching long way round.. I went with the super tenure and saved myself $10k and having to deal with a BMW.

    I figured it was just going to be reserved for mall crawler duty now that you have access to a Jeep.



    :bananadance:



    JK!

    This is really cool! I remember you talking about this at Nokomo's this past winter. I can't wait to hear about your road trip back in 2 months, and the other adventures that will follow.

    That thing is going to be an absolute beast!

    Are they putting 37's on it right away? :boink:

    That's the one I just picked up but that's a better price. Haven't cut anything with it yet but feels like it has balls and it's so tiny. That reminds me I need to go buy some bar and chain oil...

    Very nice! I just had my last night of summer school and on the way home temps hit the mid 50's and it felt COLD which immediately got me excited because that means it's getting close to hoodie weather. Pretty damn great temps out there right now though the skeeters are brutal at least by me. Bring yer bug juice this weekend everyone!

    buddy of mine had a 128i and spent $8,000 on maintenance in the first year. I told him that was more than half of what I paid for my IS250 and my only maintenance was tires and oil lol

    Interestingly enough, the vintage ones were expensive to buy but cheap to own. My ‘71 was a perfect example of that. Times have changed.


    Fml… I have a Stihl Farm boss and the 8” Milwaukee I recently picked up, and I have no trees on my property, but it still am jonesing for that! I must be from the island of misfits… Cornelius Jones, where are you!

    Found this at the local salvage yard.
    Those look like some 35's.
    I wonder if they're still available?.....
    Regear? :devil:

    Not enough cutting to be 35's. To undertake that size up even on a 3rd gen is an ordeal. Bigger than stock but unlikely 35's...

    I'd be fine with 33's. heh
    I just like the wheels.
    Those look like 17's, though.
    Can't tell what brand they are.

    I agree look like 17’s. A bit of poke too. Messy…

    What's wrong with 17s and a little offset? :anonymous:

    Nothing, other than I'd be immediately required to get new tires.
    As far as messy?
    My truck stopped being a princess at AVF with the scratches and busted tail light.
    Followed by the mudsplashes that are always there with my -7mm offset and no flaps.

    Edit: I'm not Tyler. I use my tires until they're wore out.
    Sorry Larry. :D
