They used to let you request which tire's sidewalls you want. Now, due to increased production, you can only request which brand of sidewall.

I'm trying to head down there this summer if the army lets me. I have family in Gold Hill, and I'm gonna try to meet up with some CF people along the way. I'll be posting in the NC regional thread when I have dates.

I been reading up on it. It is possible to get mt/r sidewalks which would be good cause a good thread sucks if it can get cut to easily. Not looking to run reds but blacks once in a while but let's face it I can do te tires but far from blacks setup anyways

Start with a drain and fill with dex3. Don't worry about filter just yet. ATF is thinner then dextron.
