    Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace... Never mind "Paris to Dakar", the VehiCROSS looks ready for the Martian desert.

    VX-KAT--- Hmmm, with that wheel up in the air; you just may have discovered a new way to change a flat tire without having to use a jack. Very inventive!!!

    Very cool!! Good looking tire, what size are they?
    Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.

    They're 285/60-18s....Richard, if I recall, you aren't lifted either, right? Is this the same size you're running? Any rubbing?
    I just noticed my one pic shows a darker rubber all along the shoulder of the rear tire, like it rubbed on the inner fender....gotta go check that out.......

    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.

    Mine are 275s. I think you're fine, if it was rubbing you’d definitely hear it.

    Hardy har har John! I was JUST about to tell Dave this morning before we headed out that with all the excitement over my new rubber, the "stain" on the cladding was fadding a bit from my mind,....but then my Refinish/Restore arrived today.....and now you remind me of it too! so I'm going to tackle that project this week. It's going to be cool enough to do it so want to hit before summer kicks in up here.
