    I know they're heavy but it seems like they have less rolling resistance ?

    Hmm, probably so since there's less of a gap between the lugs? :notsure:

    Dang... Haha I'm thinking that whenever I do switch to 35's I'm going to get a set of those. I really like how they look even if they are 16's...

    Had me fooled. I know they just came out with a new model that had a mock beadlock. Either way, they look legit.

    That's true, and I think Vin's working something for the 5 lug crowd too.

    This has been bugging me. Anyone know what the purpose of that weird bump thing on the shifter in an auto? It's right above the P. looks like you could stick a flathead in it.

    You're right. I thought they had 15" in the new SR8 but just found the thread and it's 16' or 17"....my bad.

    Ice Horse: Are you talking about the shift lock override button? I'd get a pic... but i'm not near my truck.

    With the key out and your foot on the brake: try to move the shifter. Won't work. Press and hold(you may not have to hold?) the button, try to shift.

    Or I could be completely wrong... you may need to have the key in the 'on' position...

    It's so you can stick screwdriver in there and release the shifter lock if you ever needed to.

    Picture this.... You are driving down road and your alternator goes out....then completely drains your battery because you didn't know your alt. was out. Now, the brake pedal safety doesn't work to unlock the shifter because your battery is dead. The button is there so you can manually override that lock in any similar situation.

    No? Haha

    This is without keys:
    You guys put it in neutral and release the emergency brake to move.
    We use a flathead screwdriver to manually shift it into neutral.

    Simple as that!

    So am I right you stick a flat head in it? Cause I'm not sure how you'd press it otherwise.
