    Also I don’t think I’ve ever seen any of the good AT tires in a decent size included in Big O’s sales. And I’ve never been a big fan of their company. They did some sketchy shit in the past, at least the stores I’ve tried.

    Exactly why I steer clear of them. I may have stopped but I kept thinking about the buy 2 get 2… what about my spare?

    I am thinking I may want to do this before I head to Missouri in May

    F load 12 ply?! I bet they wouldn't even squish when aired down! :p I'm assuming you went that route because of all the rocky terrain you go on? They definitely are good looking tires

    Are they noticeably stiffer than what you were running before?

    Too soon to tell. Hoping to get out this weekend or next and see how they do in the wild. Overall, I like the road feel of them, though they are a bit louder than my Wildpeaks.

    There has got to be a more elegant way to get them to fit. I went through this on my LandCruiser with my buddy who had a garage and lift. Cut here trim there and after a long journey others have taken I got my 37’s on my LandCruiser. It rubbed in the rear at full stuff. Heard that a lot but never bothered me since it was a plastic wheel liner

    There is definitely a better way to do it. Don’t do it at all lol. Honestly, there isn’t a lot of room in our rigs. Even with glass and long travel etc the amount that needs to be removed to be able to use 37s and full bump and lock is substantial. This goes for front and rear.

    Can you make it work for light duty or the street sure.

    DT set them to 42 front, 40 rear, but haven't done any checking to see if that's where they should be. Waiting for the weather to get over itself so I can do the chalk test lol

    Started the body mount chop process today. I fubar’d the passenger side pretty good (the template sucked and I’m an idiot) but it should be fixable. The driver side looks better and I left extra material in place and will do more fine tuning prior to welding.

    It’s definitely more aggressive than intended lol. But I had the same thought. Will be ready to stuff 39s when 37s look small
