    This is why I went with new wheels when I got my Mickeys in 285s. I did like the stock OR wheels, but always wanted all black. The Mickey Thompson wheels checked all the boxes for me and I could get them in 16s, which I preferred. I know if/when I go to 35s some day I'll have to go to 17s though. @pearing is gonna get on me for actually typing that sentence in 3.. 2.. 1......

    There's cool and there's quoting your own post cool.

    UPDATE: They work.
    I started with a 12oz "strong" cup.
    That was way too watery for my taste.
    Dumped it and did a 6oz "strong" cup. It's a good flavored cup at 6oz.

    Well wouldn't you know.
    Arbuckle's has some flavors in pods.......added to subscription.

    Also used the googles to find pod coffee is fine ground.
    I need to grind a little more and those reusable pods I bought might deliver a more satisfying cup.

    5-10 min outdoors could get you frostbite in this cold...
    Wear your hats and gloves....and pants if you're heading out.

    I've used the Pods just once early last year. My single serve coffee maker has screen filter cup, so now I just use regular ground coffee.
    On my last order from Arbuckles, I got Plainsman and Breakfast Blend. Both exellent choices.
    Also, when I made my last order in the comments area I asked if they have noticed an increase in sales to Wisconsin. I wrote how I discovered their coffee on a trip to Texas and how I shared it with my offroading/camping friends. They sent back a note thanking me.

    Cattleman's Blend is my favorite, but I mix it up every order and try something new. I always get espresso grind, but I use an espresso machine...

    Percolator grind, the best.
    Your not drinking real coffee unless you can pick it out of your teeth all day long.

    A finer grind works good in the pod now.
    It said to fill no more than 3/4.
    This last time I packed it in and got a good 10oz cup.
    If I wanted it any stronger, I would have to stir the grinds into a cup of hot water like hot cacao mix.
