Any time you want to go drop me a line! I LOVE Big Falls.... it's even better after some rain and the mud puddles are full

What wheels and tires do you have on yours in your pic? I can't make them out....they look nice.
I'm getting ready to swap out my wheels and tires for something different soon, just haven't fully decided what yet.

They are wearing faster than I like.... I still have them and will keep them until they are shot, but I would like to change to something different on the next set.

They come new with 19/32 tread. I have about 7k miles on them and they are down to 10/32. I would call that VERY fast! My last set of tires were MT/R's and they did a little better, but it sounds like the way to go for wear and traction in the BFG Mud. I just wish they were less $$$.

What lift and gears are you running? You must have the V6 too, I've just got the 4-banger.

i might be up for heading down there the last weekend in july.. i need to make a trip to drop off some of my stuff anyway.. i'm going to be in texas for half of august though, so i need to get in some wheeling before then

i'd like to run big falls again.. but i'm not going to buy my new tires until i get back from texas.

let me know by email what's going on, or give me a call on my cell (cell is probably better)
