i'll post and let them know

after chatting with pitbull (one of the guys from the club) i can understand why............he was talkin bout cleanup after muddy track work. Got a bit to look forward to :lol:

[DR JOSH]

Yup I'm keen!! Wanted to go to loveday for a little while now. Me and my swag Keen as to hit up some mud, if only I had better tires

The Suby wagon that made it back up had welded front and rear diffs and weighed nothing but was prone to regular break downs.

I have a lot of respect for those wagons after seeing a fairly stock one be put through it's paces a little while back

Matty I was eventually going to go for either the Mickey Thompson ATZ's (4 rib) or MTZ's

I checked the Trex but they don't look agressive enough to warrant the $$$........how much can you get them for?

I'm currently running 285 x 65 x 17 but will probably have to go 70 series due to availability.

Kelly Tyres

[Matty 31]

i could check on a price for you for 17s tomorrow

can tell you that the MTZs arent cheap........i can get them for about 350 a pop for 15" (33x12.5x15)

Unfortunately tires foir the 4x4 arent too high on my priority list at the moment, well behind getting the DR tuned and I cant even afford that at the moment

thanks bud, I'm glad someone appreciates it......not like some fish kid and his goober accountant mate

looks hawt with the lift.....they do settle a tad somewhat though and they recommend you check the wheel alignment once again down the track.........I assume your price included an alignment straight after fitment?

they're meant to settle a bit on the inital drive (and i remeasured this morning and they havent moved at all). alignment had to be done straight after as my steering damper had been changed anyway
