New Tires **Lots of pics**

[subzero]

As promised, here are some pics of the new shoes for the truck. I went with the Yokohama Geolander ATS's 265x70 17s from tirerack.com. Total out the door price of $540 (80$ for shipping). From online ordering to my door was around 3 days, so not bad at all.

Here are how the tires came off the UPS truck

Didn't know if they would fit!

Almost couldn't get them installed because I couldn't find the damn key!

The tire shop

The truck shoeless

Closeup of front wheel (doesnt rub at all)

Before side shot

After side shot (thats more like it)

Old tread (guy told me it wouldnt pass inspection with old tires)

New tread (just a little bit better huh)

Random pic of hot chick and beer to end the thread

Can someone photoshop my rims glossy black? Now that I got rid of those damn white walled dunlaps, I wanna paint the rims black as well as the badges. I think it would look pretty amazing.

I havent noticed any increase in road noise. Granted, they have only been on 4 hours and I havent driven on the interstate yet.

I'm looking at the Yoko Geolanders as well. I'm planning of replacing the stock 17 alloys with black stainless steel wheels. Since I am keeping the stock alloys, do I need to buy another set of tire sensors?

so that small size difference from 265/65/17 to 265/70/17 doesn't cause any problems, rubbing, turning, ride quality??? I'm thinking of getting some 265/70/17 when I replace the Cross Terrains on my GX (or the Duelers on my 4Runner) but Idk if it'll rub or cause problems.

Thanks for the pics !!! Those big guns ( Yokohama Geolanders ) really made my day .... WOW ... they are beautiful.
