No, it was the day we tried to make it to Bill Moore lake, we stopped in a clearing for the photo-op. I am not sure if we ran part of Mill Creek on the way down, but we ended up coming down Red Elephant Hill on the way out.

Are there any 33" tires made for 16.5" rims anymore, other than BFG TA/KOs and TSLs?

crappy cell phone pic is all I have for now.

i completely hate HID lights on daily driven cars B/C they are much brighter than regular lights , which makes the F'n low beams seem like high beams and they are super intense and hurt on-comming traffics eyes ...lol...or in my case when you're comming up behind my SEMI to pass and those F'n lights hit my mirrors and blind me prompting me to point my mirrors at you to return the favor . Yes they are brighter and more intense than a regular bulb at indentical or lesser wattage , which obviously means brighter , so on low beam they blind people like old style headlights do on highbeam...I'd like to meet the GENIUS who came up with this idea .

I looked a while back there weren't many options. I had some nice 16.5" wheels that I sold for super cheap because there weren't enough options for tires to go on them.

high end lights get a bad rap because of idiots who aim them wrong or put HIDs in crappy housings. These don't blind my friends on motorcycles so there is no way they blind anyone in cars
I get blinded more by ******s with improperly aimed factory halogens and sealed beams than HIDs

Out of curiosity what color would you say the light is! I hate blue headlights.

So i have been playing with these doors on my 98 after doin tons of reseach and finding its a 2 person job and takes a long time to get them on and off... After tons on starring and beer drinking and discussing, i came to a conclusion and modified the hinges to where "i" can install and remove each side by myself in less then a minuet!! Goin to attempt a write up on how i did it so others with 98+ can finally not cry bout non removable doors.. Anybody lookin for help to do theirs before summer and i dont have the thread up yet then im down to help and or send pics.
