Default stock flex 1st gen

Went out to get my mail, was in my blazer and decided to be lazy and not get out.
This is what I ended up with.









I think thats some decent flex for being stock, 14 years old and 150k on all the parts.

the pics were taken the 2nd time I did it. the first time I was on my way to the office to figure out a problem so couldnt get out, run in and take pics. My mailman thought I was nuts.

I love em but wish I would have waited till i got the lift put on. even in 2wd with 10" of snow, it grabs the road as if it were dry. great water channeling as well as mud throwing.

as for the mail guy.... id laugh my butt off and sit inside taking pictures, he is a tool, wont deliver our mail if a car is parked near the box and gives us our neighbors mail and vice versa, i dont like the guy at all.

Good to hear, as I'll be picking up a set as soon as I can afford it, lol

How are they on ice?

You should see what other kinds of things you can climb, lol

as soon as I do the list and the cable conversion there will be Alot more pics and they will be even dirtier.

I picked em up from tirerack.com for $96 a tire, $429 shipped to my door next day. I know they have a thing with NTB/tire kingdom where they mount and balance for 12 bucks a tire instead of $22.50+


As far as ice, well unless its chained or studded itll slip, but as soon as you let off the gas on ice, they grab traction. I havnt slid once with these tires compared to the wrangler a/t's i had on it last winter.

It's a shame I can't use tirerack, lol
Ordering online from the US is horrid on shipping charges... not counting duty... Usually ends up being the same price, or cheaper getting them from a tire shop...


I'll probably end up getting the A/T-S or +II's for the summer rubber and the I/T's for the winter...

And for the record, the Wrangler A/T's are infinitely better than the R/T's, lol

Going on a fishing trip, are ya?

I hear good things about the Queen Charlotte Islands... A lot of the oil companies around here send their employees there as a bonus once and awhile...

As for where I am, nowhere near anything really worth fishing in, lol
Grande Prairie, as the name implies, is surrounded by prairies, and that's about it, lol

Thanks for the offer, but at the moment, the truck and insurance payment comes before tires, lol
