    Good deal! Just saw Jim Cantore on The Weather Channel in Orchard Park a few minutes ago - you gonna snow-wheel it today?

    Got my alignment done today my camber adjustment is maxed out now and the bolts on the passenger side for the LCA are rounded now as well not sure if I did that wheeling or the last tech did it but oh well. I had to turn down the bass boat as well we meet at the DMV and the guy had no paper work for the trailer at all. So we talked to a investigator who explained the issue and problem of getting a title to the trailer and that was enough for me. I told the dude to call me if he ever gets a title.

    It's a great looking rig, but your tires look BIGGER than that!

    245/75/17 are basically the same diameter as 265/70/17. (.14" difference in nominal height)

    ....that's why I'm currently running them. The width of the 265 would cause significant rubbing issues due to my wheel specs... so with the 245s I get the same diameter in a thinner tire that's therefore easier to fit.
