    I havent had a chance to run the rock monsters below 10 psi but I am pretty confident that they will keep the bead on there. I want to make a run out to Anza and Ocotillo and really put them to the test. Hutchinson does offer these wheels in 2 other colors, a lighter gray/silver version and a black. Black would have looked pretty cool and I may end up getting these powder coated black the next time I need new tires.

    Freeze runs his hutchinsons at 5psi always and he hasn't had an issue. from what I've heard, they work great.

    Super easy to setup the on board air. I had no experience putting an air system together so I read up a little bit on it and then went to the hardware store to piece together the disconnects and all the fittings. After the price of the compressor and the manifold, it only costs about $30 in fittings, disconnects and hoses. I still am going to be putting in a tank in the next few months.

    I didnt keep track of a list but I can list off what I used

    3/8" 150 PSI hose 25' (It has 3/8" fittings on each end but I cut this up in the lengths I needed), roughly $20

    [​IMG]

    3/8" Elbow to Barb fitting (This comes from the manifold, the barb then goes to the 3/8" hose above and held in place by hose clamps) $3.00

    3/8" male and a 3/8" female adapter. Drill a hole through the bottom of the cab and use this to connect the hose from inside the truck to the outside. $3.00 each)

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    3/8" female 3 way adapter

    [​IMG]

    3/8" male barbs x4. Then from the splitter you will need 2 more barbs that will have 1 hose going to the front and another to the rear. At the end of the hoses will have to be another male barb.

    [​IMG]

    3/8 quick disconnect. 1 for each end.

    [​IMG]

    Don't forget about teflon tape and some washers to on the hose side of the quick disconnects.

    I mounted my tank on the left side of the bed in the bed up above and behind the wheel well, 5 gallon capacity with ease, slightly slimmer than wheel well so no loss in actual bed space

    ARB's is overpriced IMO. You can get a 2-3 gallon tank for wayy less. They all have the same size fittings. Not sure what I am going to go with yet.
