Just worn out or admiring your new rubber?

Drove the truck to work then drove around in the Mercedes for the day. I had forgotten why I hated that car until I had to open the gate. Then finished out the day in my truck. I love the new tune

Well tires are on. Less than thrilled with the shop though- one wheel has three little weights instead of a large one and there is gauging in one wheel that I'm pretty sure was not there before. Live and learn, I should've inspected the truck before and after I guess.

Any reason why they didn't put the weights on the inside of the rim?

Too late now. They're on the outside. I don't care when it's done right but this was a hack job. Not happy considering I spent nearly a grand all said and done.

Spent several hours with this stuff:

Only to have the truck trapped inside of the garage due to rain. But that's okay...the truck rarely leaves there. I did want to get some better quality shots though.

My 4.8 let go a head gasket at just over 100k so start saving

as much as i dont like the 4.8, yours losing a head gasket at 100k was a freak thing. they are reliable engines..

 

I'm trying.to decide which car I'll use to.take past my personal high of 260k miles. But so far we have driven the Tahoe 2300 miles since October. So probably won't be it, lol.

 

your corolla will make it past 260.. they are bulletproof

Lol @ freak thing! My head gaskets are the freaks! Stock still btw :lol:

Yeah it does okay, but I hate chopped off shots...which was the best I could do ATM. My paint was in serious need of correction and I think I did a decent job and giving some life back to it.

Well issues with the way the hacks used wheel weights aside, I do like the AT3s so far. Ride smoother than the lousy OE Bridgestones ever did and they seem quieter too. Obviously it'll be a while before they get a winter test (I hope at least!) as the only other thing I have planned is the dunes in June and tires don't matter much for most vehicles. My first time there in 2008 I rode with a friend who had BFG M/Ts that may as well of been slicks and he went everywhere. Including up Test in reverse. :lol:

 

275s are a snug fit, makes me wonder if they'll rub offroad. This is about 3/4 lock:
