If you are a hardcore off-road guy then 34"+ tires will come in handy but otherwise it just doesn't make sense to go that big.

Sooooooo get two sets of wheels and keep stock size AND get big 35s

did you just drive your rig out from that trailer? Talking about going in style, niiiiceee...

Just a wild guess here....but I am thinking the 100 was not the purpose of the trailer and being on the track!

 

[Griffin]

you're probably right. It's more like the LC was pulling the trailer with the Porsche in tow

Loving the white one. Do you have any more pics and specs on it?

Loud - My 8yr old son saw a picture of your 2000 LX and said Dad "you've got to admit, this guy has one sweet looking ride" he then took time to point out all your mods and mention how you had everything blacked out, which he really likes... he also points out every cruiser on the road and calls them by series often before i see them now... is it wrong to be a 8yr old cruiserhead?

About a year now! I ran 2 sets!

first set: moisture got in, turned yellow, sealed it, stopped yellowing(2 months on the truck)

second set: sealed it, no moisture came in, still clear to this day Over a year of use now!

Thanks for the update. Going to order some soon. What steps did you take to "reseal" the new ones from the get go?

Thanks for the input everyone! I just got four 295/70/18 Nitto Trail Grappler MT Tires for $1003.20 (shipped) from Discount Tires Direct (via eBay). I think the 34.2" size is going to look good on 18s! I lcan't wait to for them to get here so I can get them mounted. Anyone out there running these on a Hundy?

That is one sharp looking tire at a great price... Guess the lift will be going on soon as well...

 

[Griffin]

post a pic when you get them installed.

you going to love them....I have 285x65x18 on mine

Will 295/70 r 18 rub? I like those tires and that size. I have a 2 inch lift.

Nope! They rubbed without the lift slightly at the back of the front wells and only when the corner was loaded. I've heard them rub maybe 1x per month since the lift and only when I'm doing something stupid.

Looky what we got here...

Hurry and get them mounted

Nice! Pep Boys mounted and balanced my 315's a couple months ago for $45 out the door... Other places quoted me $25/tire...
