Cincinnati Area Thread (Tri-State, Ohio/Kentucky/Indiana)

I’ve been really happy with the Yoko G003s
pizza cutters.

great on road. Wet, ect. Phenomenal offroad. Piss poor in snowy roads. Expected.

 

Yea....I probably should have

That's probably what I'm going with, expect 285/70, why did you decide to go the tall skinny route?

 

I had 295 ATs before the 255s, and they were just heavy and never balanced super well on my 16x7" wheels. Wanted the diameter without more weight or balance problems, and it seems to have worked out well so far. I have about 20K miles on them with not too much wear probably thanks in part to 5-tire rotations.

The 295s all full of peanut-butter-hill at Rush



255s

 

I'm not sure I like the looks of the 255, but I'm sure I would get used to them.. I am getting a bit of rub on my UCA, and shock resi with my 285s. So maybe a narrower tire might help eliminate that. To maybe 255/80 geolanders is the way to go it'll save me about 10 lb per tire versus my STT pro so I would expect gas mileage to go up a bit too.

 

I can vouch for 255's. My 2017 Taco had 255/85R16 (33") Mastercraft Courser CXT's on it. They were excellent offroad, very tolerable on road on decently long commutes and trips, and I found the snow performance to be just fine. They also required zero lift or wheel changes to be rub-free on the body, only the mudflaps rubbed, which were a trim or removal away. I also got better gas mileage than the factory 265/70R16's due to the effectively increased gear ratio without much extra weight. I really like pizza cutter commercial terrain tires, they're usually E rated but the gains in traction are hard to ignore, and that set of CXT's balanced just fine. I am also a fan of narrow body rigs like the Aussies tend to build, so the width was just fine by me. I could also keep a fullsize spare under the bed without mods. I'd have bought those for this 4Runner if I could fit the spare under the body but the T4R has a smidge less room than the Taco so I settled for 32's while I build up the rest of the truck.

 

Geolandar g003 in 255/80/17 are nearly impossible to find....but I just found a set and ordered them.

Anyone need a 33" MT spare? I'll have 2 good Cooper STT Pro 285/70/r17 I'll sell you cheap. You can get all 4 if you want, but 1 is cupped bad due to balance beads that were in the tire, and the other has some light cupping (also from the beads).

Also I have 1 full size spare but it's a mastercraft courser mxt, which is basically a STT Pro.

Can take depth measurements if anyone is interested.

 

good ole peanut butter hill. I’ve got a similar picture coming up that hill

 

I did it in 2wd...

 

that must be the key

 

Hello all,

I am looking for a camper shell. Preferably silver match or black. Anyone looking to sell their camper shell, let me know. Cinci area.

Thanks!

 

Looking for a hidden winch mount. Anyone have one? Or does anyone recommend against. Wanted a SSO hybrid tube bumper but that doesn’t look promising anymore.

 

Also posting this here as well for anyone interested:

Posting this rifle for sale. It's been good to me, but I need to thin the herd and pay to pull my cat's teeth out. Thinking $1200 as it sits, zeroed at 200 with M193. Round count around or under 200 on everything but the optic, that's unknown history. Local to Indianapolis preferred but I can work out shipping to your FFL if necessary. Legalities are on you to figure out for your jurisdiction, I will not ask.

That’s a super cool “Airsoft replica” you’ve got there
Good luck with the legal transfer

 

It's been a fantastic unit for me, so much so that I'm sad to see it go, it's just the 3rd AR and doesn't do anything the first two can't, while not doing stuff the other two can, so it must go.

 

I’m sure you did buddy lol

 

Dang man. I had one for sell for almost a year and someone finally bought it like 2 months ago!

 

I know it’s mostly a west thing, but anyone in here looking to do a Baja build/baja fenders? I’m postponing my build for a few years while attending college so I’m going back to stock

I had plans of wrapping them so I just did a backyard paint job. Painted them black, and clear coated… but I’m not a body shop employee. One of the caps has dripping in the clear coat and a couple of blemishes throughout the paint. Either wrap them or probably look at repainting

they’re from advanced fiberglass designs, and you can find all the info you need on their website. With the shipping and fender extensions, it comes out to over a thousand dollars. Im looking to trade for stock black fenders and a bumper, OR any other color plus $250 to help cover repaint costs.

I will sell without trades for 700, but prefer to trade

 

I’m also selling my:

-MBRP catback exhaust ($200)
-Bilstein 5100 lift kit with Icon AAL ($500)
-SPC upper control arms ($300)

if anyone’s interested

 

Aw man. I think I saw that on marketplace and almost pulled the trigger then decided to just wait for the bumper.

 

Just a heads up, there is a used domestic cfx75 dual zone on sale at REI Rookwood. It's been sitting in the re-use section for like 2 months and is now 20% off that 880$ price, so 704$ for a 1200$ fridge.
