Everyone's talking about breaking a lot, etc. But, at the same time, I see a lot of Tacoma's running 35x12.50's all the time, especially the TTORA guys. Obviously, you're jumping on the bigger tire bandwagon, but I'm getting more hesitant than I have been in the past. I may just get a second set of Dunlop Mud tires for cheap, and they are just a small 35" tire.

Hey guys,
For those meeting us tomorrow, we'll be in the main parking lot at 9:00 am. For those that don't know how to get there, we'll be meeting @ Shoney's in Oak Ridge around 8:00-8:15am for a quick bit to eat. I drive a green 4runner, and Joe drives a Gray SAS'd Rodeo on a trailer, towed behind his newer model silver Rodeo. Who's coming for sure?

Well, we had a great full day of riding. We didn't get home to 12:00 am after a long day of broken parts, and some fun wheeling. Our first break was a jeep that lost it's 4wd. The front shaft wasn't getting power. Then, we had a major tire puncture, which was easily fixed. Then we had a front left tire of a jeep completely separate itself from it's axle, breaking the u-joints, and came completely off the upper and lower joints. Then it was dark and we were heading out, and another jeep pulled it's steering shaft out, leaving him without any steering?
And, the moral of this story is "NEVER BUY A JEEP!" Every ride I go on somebody always breaks, and it's always a jeep.
