you drive 3 blocks? Are you injured, missing knee joints or something?

Nothing like shoe-horning a set of tires on is there?

I borrowed a set of 35's a few weeks ago to try on just to see how they'd look and give me some photoshop material and they really make a difference. I photochopped in a 5" lift to see what it's going to look like when I get my lift installed and get the tires here (in 3-5 days )...

Here's my result:




And lifted:

seriously....I mean, lazy much? I used to ride a bike 2 miles to school every day, regardless of the weather. Cold, hot, rainy, windy, you name it in FL, I'd ridden to/from school in it.

I dont know what type of highschool you attend but at my school we had a large amount of homework everynight. So much that it would not be safe or possible to ride to and from school with all my books. Sure it would be nice for him to get and and ride/walk to school every now and then. But books are getting thicker and heavier

I actually would agree with you on that, but with the amount of rubbing I had there was no way I could drive it like that. It took me 10 minutes to back out of his driveway into the road so I could get a good pic of them.

And a cuttin' and a poundin' I ain't gonna do.

That is unless the 36" iroks rub after the lift...

that's a weaksauce excuse, kiddo. Try college textbooks. Easily double those highschool books.

College students walk 3+ blocks every day to and from their dorms to classes or even walking from off-campus housing to classes, because they don't want to deal with parking nightmares. And yes, in cold climates too (and they survive just fine)

When I went to Tech if I took a shower before I left in the morning I could chip ice out of my hair when I got to class . Heavy books are not an excuse.. I'd walk or bike the 3 blocks too.

Oh, and the 35s look great man! Do you offroad it any? That's when you'll really have the rubbing problems...

I like the tires.

I thought it was ironic and a bit funny that you drive a Toyota with a Confederate plate...not to mention that you live in PA.

That's the way it should look.... let's see some pictures somewhere other than your backyard (unless it's using jeep as an RTI ramp)

I got free tickets to the games and in my 3 years at VT I went twice. It was better on tv because I could sit there in the warmth and if the game got boring I could always switch the channel .
