    Well I fired off some PMs the other day to Mr. HomerTaco, asking him some questions and within minutes my phone starts ringing. Sure enough Craig called me up just to answer my questions in detail and then even answered a million more. We even gossiped about Anthony. Thanks Craig! Some damn good guys on here. You know who you are!


    Working on a front flare right now. Craig has some serious talent. That's all I can say.

    So uhh, sometimes I wonder if I shouldn't go back to 33s. Maybe even stock flares. :anonymous:

    anyone? anyone?


    Wish I could get 34s without going to a 17 or a swamper.

    Nothing in particular. 4$/gal gas doesn't help though. :p

    Not sure it'd get any better with 33s though.

    IDK, maybe I just need some MTRs to change my mind.

    I also worry a little about the damn rear diff. I know I wheeled 35s for over a year before blowing it up but I worry about getting stranded since I tend to explore alone a lot.

    I go back and forth a lot.

    Yeah, I wonder how that'd affect my mileage though. Most of my commute is 65 70 every day and I do a lot of 80mph highway when traveling. I know 33s would bump my rpms but I'm not sure how the drop in weight would translate. I'm guessing the same so I guess it's kind of a wash.

    Wouldn't do anything until these wore out anyway unless a deal I couldn't pass came along.

    I'm all talk. :D
