Are you guys going on a ride anytime soon that isn't too technical?  I am wanting to get my new Landcruiser on the trail but don't want to risk banging up the body.  I know.....I know.....gay question but if you are worried about dents you don't have fun.

I want to go but it is my fiancee's birthday and I would get fired if I missed that.  I am already missing a Rugby game.  Stupid girls and their birthdays.

Sounds good to me.  This will give me a reason to figure out what is wrong with my transfer case.

its deffinitely a nice park.... if you go when its dry a locked rig with 35's can go really well
 
if you go when its wet it kinda tough for a stocker to keep from sliding around...
 
but all this could have changed, i hear they are continuously working on the trails and obstacles
 
Saturday night should be awesome, riding, football, and a concert!Big smile

How about a stock FJ40 with 235's and in 2wheel drive LOL.  Well at least that is the setup right now.  If anyone hears of any 32's or 33's let me know.

What is the rim diameter?  A guy I work with has a set of 33x12.50 Courser M/T's mounted on some alloy wheels (15" I think) that he was trying to sell a few months back.  He still has them and I'm pretty sure they are still for sale.  The tires are practically brand new.  He bought them for his Cherokee but they wouldn't fit at stock height and they were too aggressive for his liking.
 
If you want, I can check on that for you.  I don't think he would part with just the tires but I can check.

I have the stock 15x6's.  But yeah, ask him what he wants for them and if it's a good price I will think about it.  And if he would seperate.  The problem with Landcruisers is finding wheels that fit them.  The wheels have to have a 3.5 backspacing.

I have decided to get new 33x10.50 bfg AT KO's.  Drake thanks for checking with your buddy but I did alot of searching on IH8mud and the 12.50's will not fit on the stock 5.5in wheels.  I want to keep the stockers because they look good.  Thanks guys and still waiting for the easy ride.
