Hidden Falls - April 15-17th

We'll see how they work.. from what I've seen of the vehicle before they work great. Just need to air them down to 2PSI or so. Leaving the Stauns at normal pressure and just let the sidewalls flex as much as possible.

Oh! Don't be a dick!!!





Jealous!

 

[TacoXpo]

That will be sooo sweet! Are you taking it out on the upcoming trip?

 

[Silverback]

Are you planning on keeping it street legal at all? That might effect your choice in tires. Street legal mud tires like the KM2 are nice... but I think they are limited off-road. At the same time a set of Creepy Crawlers would be awesome on the trails, but suck on-road.

 

[TacoXpo]

Yeah, that's the current plan. I don't plan on using it for anything other than Costco trips () and going to the mountains. Otherwise I will tow it. But I do want it legal to cross roads and get back to camp.

LMAO

Yeah, thats the plan. Its all ready to go... well CB is not installed yet. But its mechanically ready to roll. I'll finish up the CB install this week and work on my trailer some more this weekend. I don't think my trailer brakes will be here before the weekend but apparently those are an easy install (fingers crossed). I really don't want to pull it without brakes. Even though its only an hours drive, its pretty twisty.

The real bitch is the 170 price for 35's is tempting, I just would like something bigger.

Tread right? Retreads? Hmmm? will I leave treads on the trail like my favorite 18 wheeled rigs?

Seems like a good deal

That would suck

I have heard nothing but good things about Treadwright tires. I would put a set on my runner but it's not exactly a high class rig either.

Thats not true Rob. I feel the following picture could have been replicated with the Creampuff and still have the same effect.
