With little or no regard for what everyone else might be doing.
My Father (RIP) & Brother are the exact opposite, they'll drive a new car off the lot & never change a thing other than normal wear items...seems so sad & boring to me, but as long as they are happy with their choices...:_confused
Brotha Dub,
I'm usually not into the spike thang but they look real nice.
Are they pressed in or threaded? It looks like they went into existing holes on the rim so what did you have to drill?

The studs are threaded on the inside, & held on from the back side of the rim by...what else?...stainless cap screws...:yesgray:
Oh, & let's not forget...a little loc-tite.
You drilled all the way through the rim??? Not sure I'da had the nerve for that!!!
Hard to believe he was gay...Quote:

Nice touch, you know I like spikes, I just prefer them to be a bit bigger! :evil:

It's only the webbing between the spokes, didn't drill through anything that's crucial to keeping compressed air on the inside...:smilewinkQuote:

Looks awesome Dub..
But remind me to drive in front of you which every year I think I have.. Just in case one breaks off.. Dont plan on changing a flat on a trail this year lol. :D
Seriously tho looks like rim came that way very nice touch..
I never understood why people keep things the same and never personalize.
I still got a "boy howdy" on my portable system...Quote:

Lbud,
Aren't you afraid that the Red Rock Grannie Panties will get caught up in those spikes whilst at Moab???
So since LDub is rather humble about showing new photos or making a thread about his awesome new tires, and newly shined up rims, here are the photos to look at, next set of tires I will be right there with you ;) Nicely done LBud, 35"x12.5" R20 Mudd Grapplers installed:

And even more bummed than I am anxious with regard to all the others who WON'T be there this year...:(.:sighwgray.:waab:
I'm just hoping that next year is gonna be MASSIVE, with all those MIA's from this year, along with all the first timers who have said they're coming next year in attendance...:thumbup:
I fear for the well being of no undergarment...:laughing:Quote:
