    I tried that, I guess I didn't try hard enough.

    In other news, now that my CB antenna is mounted I can fly my "I am Canadian" flag.

    it took a bit to get mine off. But then again everything on my truck is just stuck on to make my life hell. If all else fails bring out the BFH...And if you get to that point let me know because I need one for my pinch weld.

    I only want to be careful that I do not mar them. Need to keep them pretty for the next owner :)

    I have a pretty heavy ballpien hammer, and also a 4 pounder. 4 pounder would be best for hammering on the wheel... maybe I try again tomorrow.

    I was hoping to find out tonight for certain whether my rims fit without the spacers. I have made buying tires into a really complicated process and now I am considering keeping the rims I've got on... but only if I can loose the spacers.

    I found sitting on the ground and just kicking the wheel with both feet works fine. Or Mitch is really good at just touching them and they fall off.

    I had to buy 15 cans to get the flag. Still plenty of them left at the NSLC on Tacoma. Which is a really awesome street name, as it happens.
    If I HAD to I MIGHT be able to consume 15 more of them, but no promises ;)

    A dead blow hammer/rubber mallet would work well to get the spacers off Duncan! But I don't mind giving you a hand some time!

    And.. I might consume 15 or more beer, I might make it Canadian ;)

    Got the spacer off, yay! Confirmed my rims won't fit without them :( At least I know.

    I have to find out if I can fit 235s on the stock TRD Sport alloys. They are supposed to be 7.5" wide, so it should work.

    My current tire choices are now:

    Duratrac
    Open Country C/T
    M-55

    Thoughts?

    I am happy with my Duratracs. Seem to be getting decent mileage after 1.5 years and they work well off road and in the snow.
