    Ehh, you aren't going to be able to hang in my "OME cool kids club house" :p


    Grats on the strides to ditching the spacers! Take it easy on the factory coils, if I remember right, you can overload them if you take a bad bump. Keep to the pavement and watch the train tracks.

    Portland is one of the worst areas in the State (this side of the Cascades) as far as cold weather when it happens. Being so close to the Gorge causes problems.

    This was downtown Portland (Goose Hollow area) in 2007. If this is a bad winter and your first time in Portalnd, expect to see a few more of these.

    :rofl:


    That's horrible though! I've had some practice in snow in the mountains of Southern California, but not too much with strictly ice. :eek:


    I definitely won't be driving if it looks like that out!


    I can hang in the OME club, right? :D


    I already had my KM2s siped, I don't plan on running studs. Hopefully I'll be alright. :eek:



    Does anybody know if Portland is in for a bad winter?

    You know Oregonians so well. Haha.

    My favorite is people who put their SUV in 4WD for the first time in years and think they're invincible. So... they tailgate you on ice. IT DOESN'T HELP YOU STOP

    So questions for everyone. I need help deciding on wheels and tires.

    With the 3" OME lift (hopefully come christmas) which wheels should I go with? I'd really like a set of ATX Chambers in black, but they dont make them anymore. So I was also looking at the ATX Artillery in black. But also had an idea of the TRD Offroad "Beadlock" silver or black wheels.

    As far as for tires. Im trying to decide between the BFG AT's and KM2's. And either a 265 or 285 size. I'd like to keep my gas mileage close to what I am at know (almost 20mpg).
