Never heard of them, but they are pretty cheap for a 35.
I am looking for tires for the camaro soon, they discounted my r888, i loved the tread pattern, and don’t like the look of the new r888r, but they are supposed to be better

In my experience with tires, stick with a name brand. Cheap tires do not last. Also that tread is real aggressive. High chance of it chopping badly, vibrating, and being very loud. Try the Cooper AT3. Good traction and wear well. We run the firestone A/T on our 6.7s (20") and get almost 50 k out of them.

Main harness to FICM connector. Fix it right, fix it once. Lehar's Diesel told me they didn't know these existed and zip ties were good enough for who its for.

You would think being a diesel shop they would know about fixes to common problems.

Sad thing is I talked to one of the owners on Monday that I hadn't met in the shop when I was there. I gave up on the phone call before I started yelling about how much I paid because I expected it to be done better by someone who works on these everyday than I would do. Lot of times these days you don't get what you paid for.

Yeah I know its redneck shade tree but it's currently the only concrete pad I have to work on at home. I'll work on that this year. Both knuckles off and if I can get off work before 7 tonight maybe I can take them to my dad's and press the ball joints in and out. Probably press out u-joints so I can have axles in housing and reinstall the knuckles.

Just because someone bought a couple wrenches doesnt mean they have a clue. Or standards. Or pride in work.
Unfortunately see it all too often.

Ramps, "red" trillium and white trillium. I'm not real close to nice wooded areas so over a few years created my own little patch like you would see in the woods this time of year.

Damn it Tony, you should have just dropped it off at my place. I'm real good at messing things up!

I second that, so many cheap junk tires out now. Can't go wrong with cooper at3, stt, or good year duratrac. I have a set of new duratracs on one truck and at3 on another. Both great, duratracs slightly better pushing snow.

Not made in a 22” rim as far as I can tell.

Just talked to a guy with a 2008 Duramax running the STTs. They are about 80% worn out, and he said he’s only got about 12,000 miles on them.
