Those bushes on the RH side sure look like they were Photoshopped in...

Nice looking truck, very tidy. Front tyres look as low on tread as a couple of my back ones ! LOL

Re: Picture of the Week 11/14/2011
Run the ones in the back outside as a larger all the same set. Keep throwing tires at the front. They then become trailer tires or innners on the rear....
Rears last ~30,000 miles. Fronts last ~3,000 - 4,000 miles
Back end is in 8WD all the time. You want a matched set on the back. 60,000+ miles and no problems...

Re: Picture of the Week 11/14/2011
Took delivery of 6 brand new tyres last week, and the new tubes arrived today. Hope to get the local garage to fit them for me on Monday. Planning for new ones on the front, and new ones on the outer back.dr deuce wrote:Run the ones in the back outside as a larger all the same set. Keep throwing tires at the front.

Do you bother getting any of yours balanced ?

RE balance: You have to get them balanced on the vehicle to matter. To do that you have to pull the front hubs and back axles
