New tires getting ordered on Monday

[handeeman]

I'd go for the Kumho's but they'd leave a 1.5 inch gap all the way 'round my rim. Hard to keep em aired up that way.

Dubs not on-line at this time, but I'm sure he would say something like buy-em and "duct tape".

And JAMAS you got me thinkin about how to convince the wifey I need new tires like Nittos or Generals..she prolly won't buy better handling in the snow (she's blonde she might) here in Fl. I could go with the ol you never know when we might need em.

COMPENSATION ... tell her that manly tires will make you feel young again ... wink ... wink.

I may have been a bit quick to jump you. I thought you were talking about wider rims. Not shorter. Hence spreading the gospel of Offset again.

But you werent.....this time

I didn't figure it out till you mentioned you have 15's. Although, you do have large tires.

My bad.

its all good. I was gonna let you have that one but since you brought it up ... wazza matta. You sleep deprived or sumpin?

BTW, 33x12.50's are fairly common round here "difference is ... I make it look good" (Men in Black 1)

Well while we're staying with movie references, try this one on her:

"Peer pressure's a mother @#$!@#" (Dave Chapelle on why he started smoking weed in Half-Baked)

After she laughs, invent a reason that you need to visit a snow covered area once a year and maybe she'll bite.

You feel the tires you have on the VX now make your but look big and if you buy the tires you want now you can save $200.

This, from the unmarried guy, er, never married guy...

Good try though Dave!

I also think a rule for marriage should be the wife has to give advanced warning when she plans to start a fight over something stupid. Then at least the guy could go out do something that will get him in trouble. Then the wife could start a fight over something sane and the guy at least would get the opportunity for a little fun before he gets in trouble

I am going to finally pull the trigger on my new tires.

Be sure to check the manufacture date since they are being pulled from some warehouse. http://www.vehicross.info/forums/sho...492#post173492

Ahh I see. Opinions vary but I was really pleased with the Kumhos when I had them. Wyoming Christmas blizzard was handled... er, handily.

different kind of snow out west then back in Ohio. Much nicer.

Definitely! That is priority one. Especially since my tires will be replaced from age before they are replaced for wear. I live about 10 miles away from work.

goes to show you that you need to get out and use that baby!!! take a road trip, go off-roading... do something!

Unless I win the lottery and have spare cash to fit and fix the vx when it breaks, I probably wont be doing a bunch of off-roading. I do, however, look forward to having no problems trekking through the sloppy mud to get to the pumpkin patch and the crazy hill, mud, and ice to get the Christmas tree. I also have been looking forward to the time when we get 8 feet of snow and everyone is panicking at work because they wont close the office. I no longer will need to panic about whether or not I will be able to make it home.

It may also make a road trip to Chicago a few times to visit family in the winter.
