Lots of comments and questions about the SS LTB's. :cool:

My take on these tires are that they look great on a 40 and fit well with the stock rims. I have manual steering and the skinny width helps keep things manageable in addition to fitting up into the wheel wells when articulated. They perform excellent on the trail and are very durable with extremely tough side walls. These are bias ply tires, so they ride pretty rough on the street, but not terrible. I rarely try to push it over 65. If you have a good tire shop balance them, they are not bad at all and not as loud as you might think. They do wear very quickly on the street, however, and I wouldn't expect to get more than 10-15K miles out of them. They are pretty inexpensive too, so replacing is not as much of a hit to the wallet. I bought a set of 5 and have been rotating the spare through regularly.

Overall, I would say they are a great trail tire, but definitely not a good choice for a daily driver, or someone who's used to riding in an 80. ;)

Very nice. Great pics! I wish I lived out there.

Later,
 
Very nice truck, an inspiration:beer:.

I can see why you plan to swap in a 4 speed considering the combination of the 3 speed with 34's.
 
nice

Yup, that's the correct look for an FJ, I'm looking forward to getting my paki top, way better than the others looks good.

Man I dream of a run like that! The scenery is amazing!
 
Beautiful! Nice uncut, and that top looks perfect on it :D.

Jealous of the scenery - damn nice.
 
Great looking stock rig, and beautiful scenery. Did you end up using any caster shims with that size lift and shackles? I was also wondering if it happens to fit in a 7ft garage anymore?

Thanks Dave
 
Thanks for the kind words everyone. :cheers:

I used 4 degree shims front and back. I got the good steel shims from 4Crawler. No vibrations and tracks down the road straight.

It fits into my garage with about 1 inch to spare as it passes under the door. :hillbilly:
 
I like the contrasting colors in your photos. You have the "eye"
 
Martin,

AWESOME write up dood :cheers:
 
Nice job Martin and the pics look great.
 
..It appears that you've put a lot of miles on them, both highway and off-road..

This is true, and I'll really be able to give you an opinion this summer as I'm hoping to road trip out to Nevada/California for Rubithon.

Beautiful! Nice uncut, and that top looks perfect on it :D.

Anytime anyone visits Colorado, look us up in Rising Sun, we'd be happy to show/ share our trails. :beer:
 
Thanks for sharing!

Great looking rig and very fun pictures. Love the mostly stock look.
