Ontario BS Thread

yup we will be there for the spring Ardbeg, just wondering about the newbie run cause it was a great time last year. hopefully there is a trail run this year at the same spot

 

I am sure there are people that want to revisit those places, make a new thread and it can happen!

 

thinking about some new tires. Started looking into the Duratrac RT. Anyone else check these out yet?

 

^I plan to run those in 255/80-17 (33" skinny) when my 4Runner's current tires wear down. They're expensive though.

 

Said about anything in this current market

 

cant speak on those tires. I just installed Toyo open country at3 and they are awesome in the rain. Had cooper discovery at3 ltx and my hydro planned like crazy in the rain. Tire size 285/70r17.

 

At least for 255/80-17, the Duratrac RT is more expensive than Nitto tires made in Japan. The Nittos aren't snow rated though.

 

What’s different about the RT version of Duratracs?

 

Rubber Tire

 

Studding provisions were deleted in exchange for more siping. The tread pattern was revised slightly to be much quieter on the highway according to the people who have used them. I'm just eyeing them because of the newfound availability in 255/80-17.

 

Kinda what I said...but OK

Plagiarist

 

They are also on sale this week at crappy

 

Does anyone have spare coils for 2.5" shocks? 3x14

Or perhaps looking to trade 600-650# for 700#

 

if you have 700lb coils. my fox 2.5s have 600s i'd be willing to trade. though they are 3x13

We'll talk

 

Story time:

Browsing the internet, as I do, I come across this:



Haha, ok. Scam me. Check out the site... Looks legit, although I've never heard of them. Who is lookup:




Ok... Holley. I've heard of them. Definitely not a Chinese company setting up a site a week ago. Hmm .

Ok, I'll bite. Worst case scenario, I'm out maybe a few hundo or a credit card chargeback and I'm out nothing.



And now I wait.



Just sit back and wait to see cancelled

What's this? 62 lb shipment to my US PO box?? But it still says shipment pending.



So... It's either what I ordered, or it's a box of rocks...



Pay the second fee for them to ship to Mississauga...

Pick it up



And open it



Total investment: <$300 CAD.

Current cost to my door:



Or approx $3500 CAD ON SALE.

Do I feel bad? No. My only regret is that I didn't get several but I didn't want to set off any alarms.

It's still pending shipment in my account, btw

Thank you for your time.

I'll bring them to the meetup tomorrow because I have a lot of questions.

 

Should have shared the link.

 

Those shocks are no good. They belong on a old worn out truck like mine. I can do you a favour and take them off your hands.

 

Couldn't risk the order being cancelled if they suddenly had $50k of shocks being sent out for $4k

 

I'll give you $700 for them, 130% profit and you don't have to risk life and limb trying to swap springs
