... of tires:

1969 GMC · 03-07-2004, 06:16 AM

is the one by the red strap a Dick Cepek Fun Country?
Others (also a guess) the one in front of the FC, is that a Mickey Thompson Baja II? thats all I can guess.

and the one behind that either looks like a ProComp XTerrain, or a Yokohama Geolander. from what i can see, there are no Interco tires in there.

**JIMs70GMC** · 03-07-2004, 08:57 PM

Dick cepeks, X-terrains, 36" military tires, some off the wall 33" all terrains and the TSLs on my truck.

*1FaastC10* · 03-08-2004, 01:48 AM

*DOH* i thought we were just looking at the ones in the truck. how do you like the TSLs?

**JIMs70GMC** · 03-08-2004, 07:27 AM

Jeremy, They suck! Hard to balance, hard to keep balanced, flat spots in the morning, loud on the road. Other than that I love them. I mainly got them due to the load rating they are "D" load range. I haul a lot with my truck and did not want the tires being a problem. I should have went with 16.5" rims, almost all tires for those rims are at least load range "D". My 71 has the H052 rear axle I'm going to install some 35s with at least a 3000lb rating!

Funny how some of those tires look familiar. I wonder if my brother is ever going to notice those other two that you didn't take. I rolled them behind his garage....lol

Dean post a pic of your longer brake lines.

Jim - I'll try to remember to take some pics tonight of the hoses.

*1FaastC10* · 03-08-2004, 06:26 PM

Jim, how do they handle offroad?

**JIMs70GMC** · 03-08-2004, 09:14 PM

Well ignoring the stiff suspension. They do good never gotten stuck. They are so-so on snow/ice covered roads. I got a quote on shipping the rims fed-ex ground for all 4 I'll take $140 shipped.
