For those of you running over sized tires, I have a lesson for you today. I know the lighting makes it tough to see, but what is wrong with this picture?

Image

First lets look at the drivers side, everything seems to be ok right?

Image

But, when you get over to the passenger side, something is different... 8O

Image

The moral of this story, always carry a full sized spare. :twisted:

what did you do? You cant tell us to carry a full sized spare and then just not tell us about your adventure...

MEPR: Actually all I did was take the 31s off that LUV when I got a flat on the Trooper. I wanted to see how the Troop looked on 31s, and they really didn't fit on that LUV, even with a whole lot of lift. The front fenders needed trimmed behind the tire. The 60 series were just rollers for the day until I got the tire place to patch my worn out BFGs. The LUV is on 235/75R15s now so it doesn't look quite so embarassing.

Tilted: Your nickname and the first picture of that truck go together really well...

I was going to do circle track in Australia. You know how everything spins around the other direction down there like toilets, tropical storms, and bathtub drains. :wink:
