    49's (what is on the jeeps in the vids) with 4-6 PSI will walk through deep snow as easily as those tracks. Plus they fit the wheel wells better!

    Thumbs up

    Pretty Trick for a Trick Price but for "off-road" use only so this toy would be a trailered spare ride. Like Billy said, if you have money burning a hole in your pocket, it is no big deal then and you probably have a trick Diesel Pusher and a nice trailer for the rig anyways....

    I have money burning a hole in my pocket and am going through the process of picking this up at a local dealer soon (but in black/obsidian.... to match the VX)....





    Keep your fingers crossed for me!

    That looks pretty sweet although I think I would change out those rims ASAP, they look like the GMC, Camaro 5 spokes, it just looks odd to see a very american looking rim on a foreign car, you know what I mean? Maybe if they were powder coated to match the car with a little wider tire on there that would look better, what do you think?

    Well, I took delivery yesterday. And yes, the wheels are different. Multi-spoke BBS in silver. !@#$ing beauty! I will try to get some pics as soon as th erain here decides to stop spitting on me.

    The wheels are 18x8.5 and I suppose I could go a tad wider. I would like to do that and get about a 1/2" drop.

    She is fun... fun.... fun. Still getting used to a REAL tranny over that sludge box I had in the WRX though.

    NICE!!!!! I have Tein S-Tech springs on my rx-8 and I love the drop it gave me there, it was like 1.5" in front and .8" in rear, just perfect to level the whole car out. You going coilovers?
