Life never slows down are you crazy. I will look at the calendar when I get home. I live off that thing with everything going on.

 

I wish I could say the same.....

 

I said settling a bit, not slowing down..haha

 

Speaking of fast..I'll just leave this here for your amusement and thoughts..

I'm thinking about painting my stock off road wheels matte bronze . What do you guys think ?

 

I think bronze wheels are awesome, especially on black trucks. Are you ganna switch wheels or just have 2 sets of wheels and tires?

 

Thank you all for the bday wishes. And thanks for the ones who texted me. Alex was hilarious. Today I used a bday check I got from work (I was like holy shit thanks) did all my belts (about damn time) then gave it an oil change ad it's all gooooodd

 

i use the black wheels with the duratracs for offroad and the stock wheels for commuting to work . save more money that way .

 

It's funny I was thinking the same thing after seeing some dried dirt on my wheels from the wheeling trip. I was just looking at paint yesterday... I'll do it if you do it!

 

Bronze wheels look sick on black trucks. Reminds of the old Subaru 2.5RS, always loved that combo.
You still going home this weekend?

 

Ahh commuting wheels, a little dream.

 

I sure am! What day is the ride?

 

switching out wheels and tires is alot of work for exactly how much savings? not like many of you guys in MA have long commutes to anything...

 

With the right tools, not even air tools anyone can do it in under 10 minutes after you have done it once or twice. Probably under 5 even. My buddy told me he could do it in under 3 minutes on his little civic track car, no air tools. I said your full of shit, and i was wrong haha, he made a video just to prove me wrong.

 

50 miles a day, that's long enough to justify not wanting to run mud terrains. Not that I'd ever need to anyways... Besides, like Evan said, 10 minutes tops.

 

lmao great minds think alike .

takes 10 minutes out of my day and puts a extra 125 miles in my gas tank .

thats fast

im right around 50-60 a day .

 

yeah, i dont see the benefit. its still a pain in the ass.

10 minutes? if you have a rotary lift...

 

Garage , floor jack , impact gun .

 

Jack under the frame can get 2 wheels off the ground at a time. 10 minutes in my driveway. I don't even bother to get the impact out, takes more time to get it out than I save with just using hand tools.

 

If you factor in the cost of a extra set of tires then you have a argument. Its a pretty big differnece, with stock tires i was filling up around 300 miles, with 285 duratracs i fill up after 220
