    Screw you man, I've still got another 45 minutes!

    I'm looking forward to that as well. I only got a few tanks in post-Duratrac/pre-blend switch, and I was still fiddling around with tire pressures the whole time. I'd like to see what I can average now that I've got the pressures dialed in where I want them.
    Of course, then I'll be putting the AT20's back on for the summer, once mud season's finished around here.

    I have the rare blessing of both a large garage and a significant other who doesn't want much of it. As long as there's room to park her car, she's happy. All the rest is mine.

    Of course, between my woodworking shop, motorcycles, spare tires, welder, and woodstoves in various stages of restoration there's not much room unless I make it :anonymous:

    Same here. The worse part is i thought i was done at 3:30. Then i got a call and was asked to stop, pick up a few materials and install them at a job, supposed to take 20 minutes. I am currently attempting to de-thaw a tube a PL 400 to glue down a threshold, which i was told i can just nail down....nope, Fun stuff.

    Yeah. Ever since I went with the MBs for winter, I really didn't care for them. I think it's because the snow tires have a more car-like tread profile and are blackwall. Plus, it's an 8.5" wheel on a 265, so it's a bit more stretched than I'd like.

    I had pulled off my OEM TRD OR wheels with only 843 miles on my truck for the beadlocks, and even after I sold them I always regretted it because I really liked how they looked on my truck, much more so than I ever thought I would.

    This gave me the nice option of going back to that look until winter is over. I bought them from an older gentleman who just wanted them gone. No complaints here.

    Damnit Mike.

    Looking to put them on my bumper.

    No kidding! That's what I did, just added them, figuring I'd sluff it off and not actually do anything about it. Then I saw what the final price actually was, proceeded to go full retard and ordered :anonymous:


    I did ask about Vision X pricing. If those Light Canons are comparable, I might switch.
    Depends on what you want to do with them. If you want distance and will be mounting them up as high as your headlights (or close to it), I'd go with driving. If you're going to mount them low and actually use them as fog or rock lights, then go for floods.


    Personally, I went with D2 amber driving lights.

    I'll likely go with driving, or i guess spot for the duallys (which I assume are even narrower beam than driving)

    The Duallys only come in spot or flood so the spots, in this case, are the driving pattern. Usually they're around 10 degrees of spread give or take. If you want a really narrow beam, ask him about the dually hyperspots.
