used plastidip just cause I like it better in black. At some point I do want to do flat black. Kinda no point since its just gonna get beat up and scratched.

The generals it's my first set, and it's been over a year now and can't even notice the thread go down at all. Works great in dirt, mud, water and sand. I'm yet to try it in snow but probably will this year. Worth the money and cheaper the BFGs. Very quite too. I've had no complaints what so ever. Great tire. I recommend.

Thanks there's still alot I' haven't been able to install.

Thanks for the insight. Going to get pricing on a set for my rig later this week. 

[valentin36]

I would just look around for pricing, as apparently most places it's a special order nowadays. Last I checked tirerack had the best price and shipping does not kill you terribly.

Put up my custom 20in bumper light
And did the zombies rocker switch. Pain in the ass to understand white,blue and black to hook up the 5prong switch blew a few fuses trying to figure this with no tester.

Ill try it out and show some pics on that. I need to bake my head lights and make the ambers and sidemarkers jdm yellow too. So much to do.

Had some fun with my best friend at Mt Blady
My X does look nice in the snow

Nice shots. Well, minus the sharks beanie (go Kings!)    


I saw all that snow on the mountains this morning and had to give my best effort to not ditch the family (leading to certain divorce) and head up there to play around. Then I read horror stories on facebook about people sitting in traffic for 6 hours trying to get to Big Bear today and realized I'll wait for the next snow storm.

Hahah thanks gotta rep. From SJ. Even if they choke in the playoffs every year
Nope it was sponteneous, my girl wanted to feel like xmas with snow so we drove up from SD left at 7am made it by 930. Was fun getting thru snow. Black ice no issue for general grabbers with no chains.
Pulled a few small cars/ minivans that got stuck swerving on the ice.
No pics on that since wouldnt be much of a proud moment to pull a minivan. Voodoo rope came in clutch best purchase.
Besides Mt Blady not that far and i hear Big Bear was mandatory chains. For sponteneous trip didnt have time to drop money on chains or find someone to borrow from at such a last minute. Lots of fun tho. Even i was surprised what my 2wd could do in the snow
Might due it for new years again.
