    I also miss a good fish fry, and prime rib at a supper club that over serves the old fashioned's.

    Hey stranger, long time no seehere,

    If you are going to be playing in the snow you are better off with tall
    & skinny to cut into the snow, 285's tend to be wider & under these light trucks causing them to float on the snow.

    As for tyres I'll throw in my tyres Nokian Rotiva's, great in the wet & snow rated.

    something tells me I already asked you about the 37s but forgot. The picture is jogging memories because of the wheels. Those wheels are pure class…hard to forget.

    Also, the further north you go, the scratchier it gets. Especially if there’s a fellow by the name of Pat involved. :p

    Don’t let that scare you off from hanging out @Evostaco

    Remember…:itllbuffout:….always.

    Well ok…almost aways
    …and mostly.

    I’d like to know what type of intrusive thoughts you’ve had regarding portals. Specifically, why you’re resisting those thoughts.

    I mean, I’m just an outside observer here and don’t want to overstep…but logic dictates that even if portals are wrong, you shouldn’t want to be right.

    I'm not sure about the differences between pizza cutters and 285s in snow (especially 3 peak rated 285s like my Mickeys) but if he wants negative offset (poke) and gets new wheels with -38 offset, them pizza cutters gonna look funny.

    BTW, I think the stock off road 3G wheels actually have positive offset, so my 0 offset Mickey Thompson wheels do push the tires out further than stock.

    Offset explained in a downloaded pic:

    Lots of intrusive thoughts. They're definitely on the upgrade path. Just down the road.

    Oh there will be some mods all right
    Modding a vehicle is always an exercise in spending money, but portals are on a whole other level. People who can afford portals make me straight up jealous.

    Yeah, I've wheeled with 3 different people on portals. It's crazy watching them not even try on some of the lines.

    Minor suspension upgrade. Nothing much, but I’m not mechanically inclined and could use help.
