    Love em, huge upgrade from the toyo open country a/t 265/75/r16.. these are 285/75/16’s, so I had to trim some plastic to keep them from rubbing, but other than that, haven’t had any rain to try them out in.. and they don’t howl much at all

    Thanks I have 255/80/17's on now and thinking either stay with them or switch to 285/70/17's. I'd love some 285/75/17's but really wanting to regear right now. I think I's lke the extra 285 width though

    I am planing on putting bolts in my center console (thing is DEEP!!) for my little paddle holster so i can start carrying my Beretta PX4 in truck. I am putting it in center console cause I do not want everyone and their mama to know I carry. I am sure it will fit snugly, it is by no means a compact, in fact it is a Full size service pistol, but it should fit. If you do not know, this is a PX4 Type C: http://blog.beretta.com/the-beretta-px4-type-c
    I am looking for any advice you might have, my holster is a simple little thumb break leather holster (https://www.natchezss.com/media/catalog/product/G/E/GECMBTMSTR.jpg)

    She runs. What more can I ask for?
    Might want to look into Lock'er Down's centre console safe. Or a steering column holster.

    I have the Pros... wet weather is good! i drive highways at 70+ mph in the rain. Better than KO2s! They are loud AF, and once the treads start to wear the howl gets louder, at slower speeds (-10mph) you can feel the spaces between the treads.

    Good tires, but using them daily on 50 mile round trips makes me wish they were a little more quiet.

    What coils does everyone run with an aluminum single hoop (60 pound) bumper and aluminum ifs skid, no winch?

    Im still running stock coils with 5100's on the highest notch with my 33's. Going to swap the coils since Ill have a lot out of the way during the install. Not sure If I'm "heavy" enough for 886 or if I should go 887? :confused: :notsure:

    That item that you're holding in your hands is called a nut plate that's what we call him here in New England you can find them at Ace Hardware actually any hardware store Home Depot some are designed for machine screws some are design for sheet metal screws choose carefully I actually have them on my snowblower because I didn't like the way the original bolts were attached to the muffler

    I have the TOyo at’s now 265/75r16’s and want to upgrade to the coopers in 285’s. Did you see a huge drop in MPG’s? What about the noise level compared to the toyo’s?

    I had some 295 70 17 toyo MTs, they are much heavier than the Cooper pros, but the Pros are much louder! With the reduction in weight stopping power, take off, and fuel consumption are both improved.

    I vote ditch lights. I love how subtle the current setup is with the flex’s not being very noticeable. I think amber would draw more attention
