AHHHH....you and me both! I need to get the stock Bridgestones and wheels off here soon as they got 30k miles on them and won't cut it this winter as I was skating around late last winter.
They were pretty good tires when new in that I had to "get on it" to cause the TOD to engage...otherwise it got around fine. Then I noticed around 21-22K miles they started giving out and the TOD was engaging without any help from me! I really like the Yoko's but it is a bad time to buy them now with winter on the way. Hopefully, I can get the Baxman look going shortly and maybe next spring/summer I'll mount Yoko's on the stock wheels for whenever I feel the need for speed...lol.
I just came from the dealer after taking care of some 30k servicing as I had the front + rear diff drained and refilled along with transfer case(TOD); this after I changed oil+filter along with fuel+air filters myself. I'm also waiting for a guy to show up any day now to demolish/haul away my 90 yr. old barn to make way for a future garage. I also am about to order a custom made shed to put all the lawn equipment and such in which was in the old barn..ugh....I can feel the wallet getting a whole lot lighter!
Nice looking VX NocturnalVX...Dallas is right though about the lift. I remember Coachreed saying he loved his Nitto Terra Grapplers and then did the lift thing soon after and now says he thinks they look kinda small.

). I think mods are addictive... get one, then another, and then you're hooked! Thanks for the comments everyone. I did the swap for myself, but it's nice to get the 
from my fellow VXers. The ride isn't that much different Rich, a little softer maybe, but with 50 p.s.i. there's not much flex. I am not hot rodding around like I normally do though (took it out of power mode even!). It's got a different vibe now 
, and I can always throw the 18"s back on next Spring if I need to.
Nice Smooth Ride...x
