    Was rubbing the UCA up front and finally got my .75” bora spacers in. Threw them on today and happy to say the 35’s do not rub anywhere.

    These meso lights are crazy bright. I just couldn't remember if they came on or not. It's probably a matter of dragging the power (neg) over to the dome and tapping in.

    I just put 35s on & was immediately rubbing on my anti sway bar. So I deleted that. Now I rub my frame on the passenger side at full right-lock. (Driver’s side is OK).
    My backspacing on my FN wheels is 4.25”. I’m considering 3/4” Boras. They are great quality. I’ve had 1” ones before - but I hate using spacers. I hate rubbing worse though.

    How you like them tires?

    Matt's recovery speaks highly of them even though they seem to have vulnerable side walls.

    I have always been the same about spacers but as you said I hate rubbing worse. Mine was rubbing the UCA with hardly any movement of the wheel at all so it needed to be done. These are very quality and I love how they come in at under an inch.

    I love them. Perform great in daily driving and awesome on the trail. I’ve also tested out the sidewall pretty good and it didn’t give so I’m pretty happy with them.

    What size is that? Looks too skinny for a 12.50.

    switch it out for green or blue lights and you will like it. We used green or blue in our helicopter with NVGs.

    I feel like blue or green is an awful idea...

    Both are very short intense wavelengths and will ruin your night sight adjustment.

    Heck I had to put electrical tape over any blue LED in my room just to sleep they're that distracting.

    Red is where it's at man. Preserve your low light adjustment.

    Copy. You never used NVGs. Red is the anti christ to NVGs. That is why we use green or blue lights with our NVGs. Red light affects the rods in your eye more than green or blue. This is the reason we use green or blue in the military with NVGs.

    I actually have used noodles before but admittedly my experience wasn't much more than here try these on, oh damn that's cool, alright give them back. I think they were Gen IV?

    Whatever the Marines were using back in '07.

    The other set I had access to was Gen 1 I think and it was just pretty awful in general, they used IR illumination.

    My only other experience with "night optics" is thermal, but color doesn't really factor in at that point. :rofl:

    Good to know. I have a Gen 3 PVS14 monocular for my fake BB wars. I have a Princeton Tec MPLS but it's only white/red.
