    Nice, I could use a bit more light out back when reversing. But I'm looking for something a little more low-profile...

    The brand is :
    snowtrakker pacemark
    Not 100% sure on size but think it was like 185/65/15

    But there have been a few guys get away with running 205 ..... It helps if your not low and rims poke out a tiny bit not sitting under front upper ball joint ....

  • What is your instagram name?
  • PrennroPrennro Council Member
    .....Baby Steps, but your learning. Keep it up! We all didnt learn overnight.

  • 3rd4ce3rd4ce Council Member
    oh quick question what do the @ and # do infront ..?????

    so @civicwagon is what i want to post it or tag it ...?????

    yeah im taking baby steps for real ......

    I found and followed:
    Prennro
    Bam
    Pebbles
    JDMrookie
    civicwagon.com

    and a few others ...
  • the # in front of a word makes it a link kind of. puts that photo in a group with any other photo that has used that hashtag / #civicwagondotcom or #officialcivicwagon

    the @ symbol is if you want it to beep someone else's Instagram feed. kind of like directing a post or a photo to someone else.

  • You can also get away with Firestone winter forces. That's what I run year round.
  • Scrappy is definitely looking like it can do some wheeling :smug: .

    All you guys are on instagram? Why must we move forward with technology & media?
  • PrennroPrennro Council Member
    Yeah Morty! Im the first one to not be on the social media kick, but will say IG is alot easier to coveiniantly post quick pics on the go and worth signing up. A ton more frequent updates and pics shared there vs here. I always try and go back and update my build thread, however. It would also help the pawn business to, free advertising for items you needed to move. This is all coming from a guy that still refuses to give in to any other social media: facebook, twitter, etc.

    Gotta say, Instagram IS Facebook. Facebook owns lock, stock and all the servers.

    Google Maps are a good place to start close to home.

    If you have a day to yourself or want to take a sleeping bag (and shovel) and make a weekend trip out of it, it looks like Ocala is a great place somewhat near you:

    Just pay attention to roads use, and whether or not your chosen route is open year-round. I like to take maps like these, strip them down to lines in Photoshop, and overlay them on top of Google Earth so I can see what the roads are like. You can achieve almost the same thing with Google Maps.

    Here are some roads from map 18 in detail, for example: http://goo.gl/maps/chEzq

    Some more food for thought:

    Looks pretty fun, wish I had some swampy roads to dick around on. I did some mud roads in Okefenokee once on a 50cc moped in the rain, that was NOT fun.
