Tillamook State Forrest Browns Camp OCT 29th Meet!

I was wondering why he was getting Studded MT's. I know studded tires are legal. Starting TODAY, they are legal to run on your car till April.

 

Ahh I gotcha. You ment today not in genral. Haha. I should learn to read better.

 

Im getting the Destinations M/T's from Firestone. They dont come studded but they can put them in with a stud gun.
Honestly I probably dont need them but after hearing about the storms in the east our winter may be hairy.

 

Psh.. this is oregon. We only have to worry about to much water then anything else lol

 

+ Ridiculous amounts of snow and ice.....

Gotta be prepared lol. Ive got to go finish my bomb shelter now.

 

When you get the Destinations M/T, don't them studded. IMO, I would get them sipped instead. That way you could use them year round. I got my tires sipped and they worked well in Oregon's different climates.

 

BTW, awesome pics and vids that were all posted. Damn I really miss Oregon and TSF.

 

This is correct. I need to get mine siped soon. I get rowdy on them roundabouts in the rain already!

 

They would be my winter set of tires. I used to rock them without the studs but I switched to revo 2's.

 

What does it mean to get your tires "sipped"?
It it like shaving the tire?

 

Kind of. It basically just adds small grooves to the inner part of the tread to increase traction. I did this to my KM2s today.


They look exactly like this:

 

Thats cool. I saw this done to a tractor once. I still think studs will grab the ice a bit better. But I can do this also

 

I'm right there too. Gotta start saving for BFGs

 

Had siped BFG Mud Terrains on my old Jeep, and there's no need for studs. Those tires lasted forever (regular rotations)... but over 50,000 miles on them when I sold the Jeep. The siping did great on wet roads, snow, and ice. Bought chains, never used them... even in that bad snow storm of '08.

 

Remix?

 

So, I get back to the US on the 18th, anyone be up for a repeat of our run on, say, the 25th or 26th?

 

Any word on a 2014 meet up there

 

I remember this run, epic turn out.
