    Anyone need GOODYEAR DURATRACs 285/75R16 on 16x8 LX450 rims? 3 are 17/32 and 1 is 18/32. 18/32 is new. Going a different direction. I also have a matching spare LX450 rim with a new TOYO M/T in the same size.

    $1000 for all 5 rims/tires. Duratrac tires come with the Discount Tire Road warranty

    Scrape the sliders and rear bumper coming off of it but I guess you could. Its easy to ride the wall when its dry, when it was wet I slid off and into the rocks.

    That is actually a good combo in my humble opinion. Back home we have alot of hills and I ran that same combo your running on a 22RET & RE.

    Anything more than a 33" tire we would run 5.29s in Hawaii

    Around here people run 5.29s with a 35" tire and bigger

    I love the torque its given me but at the same time its too much torque. Makes it much harder to come to a complete stop. Sitting at stop lights/in traffic I have to make sure my foot is firmly down on the brake. Almost rear ended a few people when I first put them in and wasn't paying attention.

    Wouldn't have that problem with a real transmission.

    I think I'm gonna go a touch deeper with the gears when I do it. Seems that the clutch is the weak point, and it doesn't have to be this high geared if it isn't being used as a commuter.

    It isn't terrible, but I wouldn't want it to be like this from now on. Since you have the 3.4L in your runner (I think) i've heard 4.88 gears and 33's is perfect for that engine.
