New Tires and lift?

[Triathlete]

Pigpen,
Where are you at in Az? I am in Tucson and VCAMILO is in Phoenix. If you are in either of those areas we have both done the lift. If you need any assistance just let us know. Also having a meet in a few weeks if your interested!

I am now in Sierra Vista, but unfortunately I will be working at the time of the meet. I'll tell you though I am definately the only vehicross I have seen in a month or two,

The rims in the pic were $5 each from a junkyard in PA (thanx Dave!), and they are 15x8. You definitely should get some cheapies, unless you aren't getting them for wheeling. The wider the rim, the wider the tire you can put on it, I know some people don't like the look of "skinny" tires.
I also use the stock tire/rim combo during the good weather months, and the MTs from Nov. thru Apr., then each set will last twice as long.(fingers crossed)

Bob,

Wow! Thanks! That's high praise coming from THE VX offroader.

As far as cleanliness, I guess I was just lucky that day. This is at Paragon Park in PA and behind me is one of the coal/logging roads that wind thru the park. We must not have gotten into the mud that day, 'cause not only is it sticky/dirty/nasty, but it STINKS when it's been sitting there for a while.

How's this??


Here's one from my second time out. Better?

I just bought my OME 912's from Rocky Road and they were great to deal with and looked to be about the best price that I could find. I will forward you the PM I have that has a good link to the lift instructions with all the pics intact. I haven't done the work yet, but I will this summer.

Good luck.
