    So far really good. They don't rattle around or anything. Haven't had to use my tred pro's yet but should work for what they intended for

    RTs are awesome! They don't like wet roads too much but damn for longevity they're so worth the money!! I had 40k hard miles on them with 7-8/32 tread left! Would have easily made it to 45k. Lets all wheel at the MINT 400 together :oldglory:

    @zackbremer , I hear you man. I'm trying to keep it simple. But like you said it just keeps going.
    I love my RT's they do really good out in the dirt. I just have a cheap compresser from pep boys Masterflow Tsunami it was like 40 bucks. It works good I have had it for like 3 years now. We got some good stuff out here come on out.

    I know @PLC721 and some buddies of ours will be at Spec 4 location during the Mint but Friday would be cool if we all met up somewhere for contingency. Names to faces :thumbsup: This will be my first time going to the Mint so I'm not sure what to expect

    I’m gonna throw my .02 on the TOYOs too. I’m in love with my C/Ts. Why C/Ts? Snowflake rated and I encounter a metric shit ton living at 10,000 ft in the high Rockies. I have close to 25,000 on them and they look damn near brand new.
    Any of you guys running 37s? And if so, did you find the need to regear? I don’t want to go down that road if unnecessary but I’m hearing conflicting perspectives. This is my first build and I’m trying to keep up with the Jones’, and you guys seem to be that family. That’s why I’m bugging you so much

    I'm running 35's. But you will definitely need to regear with 37's. You can get away with the stock 4.30's for 35's. Eventually I will get 4.88's.

    where you are located re-gear is def needed. at sea level i dont notice to much power loss with 37s but when im up in flagstaff around 7k feet my truck feels like i have a v6..4.88s are on my short list

    @TRON i only have to work 1 weekend a month and of course its march 9th weekend

    So my wife was off today so we loaded up the kid and headed out for some dirt time:)
    We started at Nellis Dunes and took Berstrom trail to Old Spanish trail down to Valley of Fire. Weather was perfect 50 all day and sunny. Earned a little light desert pin stripes today:thumbsup:
