old classic, new shoes - Land Rovers Only

gregory.pearson · 08-03-2008, 07:39 PM

I bolted these onto my 90 classic, nothing impressive

sorry

Mainly I just wanted to say how impressed I am with the quality of the nato wheels.

I had another slightly bigger set mounted, but they're in the basement for now until I have something other than stock shocks & coils to work with over here. oops.

Ok you got tires now bring your butt north and let's get them muddy

roverthen · 08-04-2008, 08:26 AM

what size tires are those?

gregory.pearson · 08-04-2008, 09:46 AM

They're just 235/70 dunlops.

The other set that I had mounted first were 215/85 wrangler at's

Maybe I'll be able to use those when I head north to meet with you guys and finally get this jalopy off the pavement.

Army- I'll keep an eye on your event schedule, and see what next event I can actually make one of these weekends. I shy away from them typically because I'd rather not choose to be the guy with the least skills, driving the shitiest truck. But those runs look like so much fun that I'm game to be on-hand to spot at the very least.

Quit over thinking it, we took a stock RRC out on the fire lane run, and 2 stock discos out on the quarry run. They did fine needed a tug here and there but no big deal.

The only way you'll build skills is by getting out there watching learning and trying the runs. Besides you're probably a better driver than I am lol, my RRC just saves me to save itself

Looks very good. Congratulations on the new purchase. Now go use it!

gordo · 08-12-2008, 10:44 AM

x2 on the natos, they are tough, but arent bullet proof. Ive got a bent one to prove it! Now go wheel that beast. I wheeled my stock rover until I wore the tires out, then the upgrades started and now, shit it doesnt even look like a rangie anymore, but underneath its the same truck

ArmyRover · 08-12-2008, 11:36 AM

Were going out to the firelanes on the 16th of this month greg so gas it up and come on

gregory.pearson · 08-14-2008, 11:11 AM

Friend's wedding to go attend on Saturday... booooo

Saw that on your snlr site, I've been trying to bail from responsibilities but this one's got me good.

The weekend after is shot too... September looks prime-time. Maybe i can learn to drive between then and now

. I'm game, just hope you're cool with using that new bumper to get me un-stuck... alot.

gregory.pearson · 08-14-2008, 11:41 AM

Gordo...

Your truck's lucky to live in Florida-

Someday soon enough my truck will look like a rover on top, but not underneath.

Your truck is amazing... lots of rover envy here
