    Dang bro. You go through 6 tires in 6 months of any manufacturer I have to wonder about your driving habits. I wheel hard and have only popped a tire on a bolt left in the road. 10 years on BFGs

    Dafuq is this? I've technically had 5 new sets of gears on my truck and I've never had a drain plug look like this. (2 OEM front/rear, 2 ECGS front/rear, 1 currie rear) this doesn't look normal. This apparently was after a regear.

    on a midsized truck that gets wheeled often 50k+ would not be unusual. l just got my old man into a new set of CT's on his 2011 Superduty, The 35/12.5/18 MTs that came off had 53k on them and had enough remaining tread left I was able to sell the set of 4 for $200.

    So does anyone know the status of Jacoby Canyon trail in bigbear?

    I know it was closed after the fire and the paper on the bottom gate said it was scheduled to re-open, but I just got word it is going to be closed for upwards of 10 years??

    I have no logical explanation for you besides shit sidewalls...

    3 during higher speed stuff, 2 in the rocks (one of which I can probably take legitimate responsibility for) and 1 literally driving around town that I have absolutely no explanation for.... All massive catastrophic sidewall failures, zero tread punctures.

    BFG's also chunk like a mother fucker.
