    New Tires!
    LT 265/70R17 E Toyo R/T as recommended by a friend,


    [​IMG]

    It's been over a month now, and although it isn't getting driven daily because virus, I've gotten a pretty good feel for the new tires.


    Love them so far, they are quiet on the road, drive smooth, and feel solid and planted up to 135km/hr. Gravel and mud roads are no sweat - although it's easy to chew tracks and throw mud (left ruts up a friends driveway by accident). I've got them at 38psi right now and they seem pretty great balance between stiff driving and not shaking cavities out.

    Acceleration might be a bit slower but not noticeable, certainly no different than the K02 I've had in the past. Braking is fine, no difference.
    Over a 400km trip I ended up at 14 L/100km vs 13L/100km for the same trip with P255/70R17 Blizzaks. So added around 1mpg more.

    They are harder to clean, but look better dirty - so there is that.

    Camping to Christmas..
    Tree hunt success, hilarious driving home with the tree on the Prinsu.
    Blizzaks walked up and through brand new snow with no tracks - no issues and make it look easy.
    We went past groups of people sitting with their cuvs as far as they could go, and got to a beauty spot all our own.
    Campfire, GT, Hot Chocolate, and Tree.. great weekend.

    Woohoo! GettaGrip installed; It's taller than I thought, but easier to hang onto.. I'm happy.

    Annual Farm run, may be the last as family is moving closer than the current 1200km trek..
    11 hours each way, this trip I tried my best to get decent mileage and ended up with a 12.3L/100km avg (~19.1mpg).
    Nice to get out of the smoke show of home - I managed to miss the worst day of fire season and escape to the rainy cool northern weather.

    Gotta love those Range Roads though;

    Also added a Hondo and 60cs to make the long drive a little more amusing;

    Currently hanging wires from the aux outlet but working on a hardwiring solution as I post..

    That would look awesome with some of the big Toyota letters. But kudos to you for all the plastic work, looks great!
