New tires!!!
(5) - Michelin Defender LTX M/S 285/60R18 120H XL SKU: Michelin 46009
(5) - FITTING KIT, TIRE 04423-330
(5) - VALVE SUB-ASSY, TIRE 42607-48010

They're very quiet*, at least they're as quiet as the OEM tires and very smooth and stable.

*of course with the roof rack and awning I'm not sure I could really hear the tires anyway!!! :cool:

I'm SO close to doing this myself. Send pics.

Everyone that runs that Michelin seems to love it.

I have them on the 100 and on the wife's GX. As far as I can tell, there is nothing the LTX doesn't do better than the K02's on my 200. Sadly, when there is snow and ice I generally try not to drive the 200 because I may not make it up my driveway. I'm completely convinced on performance and comfort, just need to get over my vanity.

Welcome to sipe city.... Geez. Wish they looked ATish but I can see why these grip.
We do like to go mildly offroad camping but it's like 90/10 highway/trail for us. We have to reckon with the fact that we drive on 1000mi of highway to get to get there. What I really wanted was the load rating. OEM tires were 116V and a tire like that wouldn't cut it for our near-term plans.
 
Not the first. Won’t be the last. Generic CarPlay portable and Gamiviti plate. Not the final install, but good enough for a road trip.

Better than me, needing to buy a whole other vehicle to justify keeping the LX goofy on road.
 
Dang! No injuries I hope?

Gotta give the obligatory cheer up, new bumper fairy just came.
No injuries. It destroyed the PS front bottom portion of the bumper and also dinged up the PS door a little bit, but barely noticeable on the door. I've been wanting to get a bumper for it, but I wanted to get an arb. I was pretty sure with the arb you cut the bumper to fit to the arb.

Dont quote me on this but its some bit of fairing near the headlights only. It may work out?
 
Brought the console into the modern era.

Tried out the seat tensioners. That was fun. A truck turned left out of a right turn only intersection into my lane. Not sure if he didn't realize or care that there was a divider in the median and couldn't just skip across traffic. I saw it happen with enough time to maneuver for space but the Cruiser anticipated a collision and pulled me back firmly into the seat.
