A foot of bird shit is as good as an inch of good weld

I just painted a set of Mitsubishi 16inch alloys and put on some BFG ko2 in 265/75/16. Very impressed with them! The tyre shine played a massive role in pleasing the missus muddies would be good but I was worried about the noise and wear with road use (i drive 150km round trip for work each day). Any bigger would have killed me on hills when towing! It's noticeable without a load!
The stock rims sit nicely inside the guard, pretty much leaves the sidewalls nibs flush with the front. I might keep the 0 offset in mind if rims need changing down the track [THUMBS UP SIGN][THUMBS UP SIGN]

My Bribie pass runs out in October so I need to head up for a weekend of beach fishing before it does.

Haha was alright for everyone else, not so much for him though...
Yeah the mighty tritey went well, Loves driving in the sand! The Collie had its first drive on the beach and had some problems with losing power, turns out there's a TC button and you hold it in to turn ESP off which was cutting the power. As for the lux, no problems, although somehow my mates light bulb jumped out of the socket and sat on the airbox for some time (maybe a few weeks) ended up burning a hole in the airbox. Just plugged it up with a glove
As for the Triton... No problems Although I still would love a wind booster or tune to get up and go a bit quicker. Driving the lux after driving the Triton you can tell the difference in the low end power.

yeah nice one man, and yeah the hilux makes its torque a lot earlier than the Trito, " this is one of my hates of the triton" still can't bring myself to drop 300 odd on wind booster when I'm not convinced it will help with this, a tune on the other hand hhmmmm, problem is convincing the missus that my ute needs more low down torque ! not easy
