Some of us appreciate ya'll increasing our chances of winning the early bird ;D
Except the boss....she'd like to have them all early.

I may treat myself to a new set of tires this year. Nyles, you are welcome to donate towards that if you want.
I have a set I can sell you, they are missing a couple chunks, a couple of the wheels have big dents in them%) they were like that when I bought them I swear;D

If they sold that tire in 15 inch I would be a player. Can't complain about my IROKs, been on there since 2009, if it wasn't for the edges being worn down still good tires.

they Do sell that tire n a 15

I really like those. IMO a great all around tire. I do have a word of advice. I know your running beadlocks however due to the stiffness of the tire by the time you get them aired down enough to really work the inner bead becomes vulnerable. Be sure to put a good bead of RTV silicone on the inner bead. It doesn't glue the tire to the wheel but it does fill any imperfections in the rubber which promotes it sealing and staying on the bead. We do that with the comp cars and have very few issues with inner beads, where prior to that we were loosing them regularly. We've found it to work better than "bead sealer" that the tire shops use. I'm always surprised how big of a bead it will consume before it oozes out between the tire and wheel.


and for once I didn't get you into spending a bunch of cash, just a little and saving hours of frustration:p

I like the RTV idea, will do that. I've been watching the prices on those for over a year and debating the 12.50 vs the 14.50. Always leaning towards the 14.50 because I really like the width of the IROKs I've been running, numerous times they have kept the fenders and qtrs. off the rocks. Sometimes a little bit makes a difference. I was debating because watching Ed's rig it seemed the 12.50s bit into the surface really well rather than spread out and spin, if that makes sense. The cheapest I had been able to find the 14.50s were $450ish. I saw a set of 4 for $380 each on Amazon last Friday and decided to pull the trigger. I have no complaints on my IROKs other than the corner lugs have just flat worn off. After a day trip to the park up here in Ohio 2 weeks ago I knew it was time.

Technically I'm ready. Just not as ready as I'd like to be

Got me a set of 5.13 gears, front AND rear, because... well, why not, right?? LOL.

Hopefully I'll be ale to get a rear locker by the time September rolls around next week. you know how time flies...

And on another note, I have made reservations with huddlestonrvrental.com to stay at the park this year, and it's only gonna cost me about $115/day after splitting the trailer with my parents. They ought to love having the grandkids in their bed at 3 in the morning. ;D Maybe if enough folks took this option, we might all call to get a little discount? There were several spots left when I was at the park this past Saturday.
