    So, you'll pay $330 CAD for treads plus tax, instead of $90 USD for the same product. That's $123 CAD plus tax if you pick them up at a Kinek Point across the border.

    But, yeah, Fort Nelson is a stretch from the border. I feel for ya.

    Well, I wouldn't order treds knowing that was the price difference. But most stuff isn't quite that bad. The bushing set I'm looking at for LCAs is ~150 US on the .com or ~250 CAD on the .ca Amazon. That's more like 200 vs 250 CAD. The extra 50 is definitely worth saving a trip to the border (or making my brother do a trip to the border and hold them until I go down that way to visit family next, which is my procedure for price differences like the treds you mentioned)

    Maybe @tcBob can get us all TW stickers for our cell doors.

    Someone cares. Thanks @stairgod :thumbsup:.

    Anyway, also in for science. Also, I have one of these cases, they're great.

    I already have some ST MAXX 255/whatever r16s, but I'd totally support everyone else doing so. Because they're amazeballs.

    Just okay? I'm insanely happy with them. However, I totally see how they're not for everyone or every situation. I'm sure someone will snatch yours up right quick!

    Actually they are awesome. Great wet grip on road and in the rocks. Good in snow. Just going bigger.

    Yeah, I know. Never even used mine so can't even review them. They have not faded in the sun though.

    Was going 37s, but figure 35s won't break as much shit. And will fit better with +2 LT.
