all that being said there is a pte88 on order.

not because of the saftey aspect but the flex it will put on the truck even with 4wd.

i knew i should of stayed! how many more runs did you make?
Those pictures don't do justice of what that tire looks like in person! it is freaky!
So after all of the talk of going twins, now you are gonna go back to the 88?

Sam is giving me a great trade up deal on it. if i can max out the pte88 then i will figure out what to try next.
BTW i sent you a pm.
