New Member in Raeford

Hello y'all. I'm in Raeford, retired military and still work on Fort Bragg. I own a 2010 Iceburg White FJ purchased new in Jan 2010.

I have added black door handles, mirrors and bumber ends.

I just recently (last week) had an OME Medium lift installed, along with a Metal-tech front bumber and PIAA 520 fogs.

I should have new black rims and Good Year Duratrac 285's, but the rims didnt come in, which is par for my luck...so eventually it'll have Raceline Renegade 6 black rims as well.

Cant wait to head to Uwharrie and let someone show me the ropes of "Wheelin' !"

Welcome to the group! Be sure to check the events section to see who is
wheeling and when, and also watch for group organized events.

Welcome!!! Great thinking on the Duratrac 285... I have them as well. I dont have a lift and Im able to ride them daily without any issues. I havent taken them offroad yet so Im curious to see how they are. Very aggressive look though and they ride well!!

As Forest Gump would say, "One less thing!" From just posts on this forum (discounting I met him last weekend), I know crogers is single, makes a nice salary, drives some nice rides, has some nice bikes, has a buggy looking thing and a Honda Quad in an outbuilding, and tells me when he is going to be spending a full day at some place called "URE". With a license plate number I can fairly easily put an address to all that "booty." Not picking on crodgers, just using him as an example since he asked . It sounds a stretch, but in todays world not that far from the possible...so, as easy as it is to do with a basic program, and I am no comfuser geek, its worth the few seconds to eliminate the risk...or, one less thing.

Thanks to all for the compliments, ...I really like how it turned out!

How are the GY Duratecs working out? These would be in my top 3 for my next set of tires...

I watched them preform offroad... The seemed to flex well when aired down. We didnt hit much mud but seemed to clear the tread fairly well as well.

Any thoughts on the sidewall?

probably better than BFG sidewalls but just guessing based off goodyears other tires.

Better than BFG - thats what I like to hear...I like BFGs, but have "nicked" my sidewalls twice....once requiring replacement....
