Colorado B.S. Thread

Hellooooooooooooooooooo Colorado!

 

That is HUGE!!







The D Ring Specifically

 

Yep! Could basically see 1.8 from our site. Unfortunate that it's literally right on the road, but luckily there wasn't too much traffic after we got there.

 

the two spots up the short road to medano lake trailhead are bomb. second one in particular. gotta go for those next time

 

Tires seem to be rolling along much better. They were nice enough to put my dirty old rim on my back seat, putting down one of those pieces of floor protector paper was too much to ask.

Ccw address changed, they do give you a new card on the spot.

Bike seat dropper that unfortunately doesn't have much use was warrantied out one more time. Hopefully the third time is a charm.

And roomate didn't end up cleaning up the bear mess nor removed any of the other stuff, just shut the lid, so the bear was back again last night, and made a mess again. I wonder of the second time is the charm.

 

Yeah forsure, I remembered you had mentioned those but I got nervous as we got down there pretty late and most of the spots we saw were already taken, so we decided not to risk not having anything and scooped the first one we saw haha

 

WHITE RIM!!!!! AHHHHHH JEALOUS buddy very jealous

 

@thefatkid the deed is done and now this has to be your sig pic....

@sean266 he might need some help wit that if you could

 

In case you were wondering, and don't care if you weren't, here it is.
A 285/75R17 next to a 37 x 12.50R16

These are fucking huge. After today's bashing and trimming, pretty sure tubbing is in my future. But it's so damn close.


Full stuff, slightly turned, closest point. actually flexes the tire sidewall slightly when it hits the seam.




Full stuff with tire straight.

 

Never done the signature thing, not sure how it works

 

hence why i asked Sean to help out

 

The light scuff on the plastic flair is all the rub there is, at that point.
The scuff on the firewall is where it hits the seam, clears everything else. It won't bash anymore, hit pone spot and another comes back out, bang that one and the other p[art flexes back out. I think it's stretched as much as possible.


By the bumper, just a tag of fender sheet metal. Easiest part of the whole thing. I zipped it off where the white line is.


The section I cut to make sure there would be no rubbing and the attempt to keep the curve consistent. Luckily the flare covers it.


Got way distracted for a few hours with a visitor, so pics didn't get taken as I was trying to get finished for the night.
Last pic I took, post trimming on the fender and flare. Clears with ease now. Except for the seam..


The shiny is silicone.

 

How does it clear when turned?

 

What I had to cut, and that seam, is all that was hitting at full stuff and full wheel lock in both directions.

As far as the tire against the frame, at full stuff and full lock on the drivers side, I'm about 1/4" from hitting the stop on the LBJ.

The passenger side clears no problem. That wheel actually is pushed a little more forward, has more castor than the driver side does.
I think once I get off my lazy ass and replace my cam adjusters, I can have it adjusted like it needs to be and gain more clearance at the trouble spots.

 

That's impressive. I'm curious to see how they size up to my 315s (without the TW calculator telling me how ).

 

You've almost cut and smashed as much as I have now.
