Yeah, they put wimpy tires on them from the factory.
Did you ever see Miss FJ climb Hell's Gate with her stone stock FJ and stock tires?


Of course her rig does not look like that anymore.
She has a complete SAS on it, and also got hitched with one of the FJ Trail Team leaders a month back.

Looks like you guy's had a great time there, and very nice scenery.
Up where I go it is still covered in snow, and they are getting more snow this weekend.
The snow just does not want to stop here.
Looks like my Memorial Day camping trip will be in the snow this year.
