Talk Me Outta This !!!

[Ldub]

Would one of my VX brethren (or sisteren) please try & talk me outta ordering Nitto Mud Grapplers for my dubs...?





I've been thinking that 33x12.50 r 20"s would look sooooo BADAZZ on my Centerlines...(see my gallery)
I know, a lot more trimming/ hammer adjustments would be required + another inch or so of lift...but I just can't can't shake the notion of how schawinnggg they would look crawlin' around Moab come spring.

This is probably an exercise in futility, but fire away...any & all opinions welcome.

Thanx all.

PS. Anyone in the market for 4 LIGHTLY used (maybe 6000 mi.) Hankook Ventus 265/50 r 20" (again, see my gallery) make me an offer.

Nah, ya need to getcha some Yokohama GeoLandar MT+ meats on those Centerlines. Directional, grippy as all heck on asphalt and anything else you'll roll over!

[Ldub]

OH THAT HELPED !...

I've looked real hard at the Yoko's Joe & like em' a lot...BUT, I'm really in lust with the more agressive side lugz on the Nittos.

I do appreciate the input though.

[biju]

Sorry dub...

I've been told I'm an 'enabler' - so I won't be of any help.

What ever you do, do not *not* get these...

damn. there i go again...

-biju.

[Ldub]

Do you mean not not as in DON'T...

Or not not as in DO ???

I'm dumber than a rock (right now ) & can barely find my arse with both hands...

I'm with the Nitto choice. When I was exploring tires I ran across those Mud Grapplers and said that this was THE TIRE! But I was thinking I should go for the Terra Grapplers since it was more "practical" and then there were the Toyo Cross Country Open Country that some suggested that were less noisy and would last longer. So I elected to go with the Terra but those Muds look just awesome.

Don't get those tires! I have heard only good things about 'em. Don't get those tires. They look so freakin' cool! Don't get those tires! They will turn your VX into this wild, crazy, wheelin' machine since you have to lift it more. Don't get those tires!
Kinda sounds like the voices in your head huh?!

LMAOPIMP(almost)...those are the EXACT voices in my head...& I'm tryin' really hard to ignore them...unlike the voices that tell me to mount forward 50's on my fenders to "R I P" through traffic...tough decision...there's only so much fundage ya know.

What are they going to cost you?

[WormGod]

Get 'em. They are nice. Join the gang.... I have spent about $2k this week on my VX already.

*side note*

I get a kick out of someone from Fargo talking (typing) the way you do Dub , hahaha. Reading your post, I cant help but picture William H Macy and read aloud with the accent from ther movie, haha. No offense, seriously. I need all the humour I can get lately.

[nocturnalVX]

Save your $$$, and maybe rent a DVD or something to take your mind off these tires & the whole VX mod addiction curse.

[nocturnalVX]

That guy doesn't know what he's talking about! Lift your VX, throw those new knobbies on, and enjoy!!!

No offense taken WG...having the "movie" put Fargo on the map was indeed a double edged ummmm... "favor".

The folks I've met from this group probably know I'm not above whipping out a "ya sure, you betcha" or a "don't cha know" for effect...especially during happy hour.

[pbkid]

oh yea, thats nothing exceptional for ldub...i dunno larry im sure that you could use some new furniture (VX seats) in the house....those nitto's would look really nice coming out of the back of the supercharged VX in moab...
cmon man you already have the supercharger to run those tires so its not like your going to lose gas mileage...
and another thing, im gonna be really dissapointed if i get a lift and tires before you get more aggresive tires....

[goffaramma]

I'm very sorry about what I'm about to say, but, um, PLEASE GO FOR IT!!! I can live vicariously through you until I someday have the $$$ to do it myself. I'm counting on you man!!! Go for it!!!
