I looked at it. And by that I mean that I literally saw it as I was coming up the drive way, looked at it, and that was it.

He must regularly rotate the rear tires for them to be balding evenly.

lol mines too weak to peel out unless its raining ... off roading and spinning up rocks might have something to do with it

plus who knows how many miles were on the tires before i got the truck, and 18,000 have been put on since ive owned it

and no i dont rotate em, figure that way my cheap *** only has to buy 2 new tires at a time (this worked great when i was still into hondas since the rear wheels just turned and the fronts did all the gassing and turning lol)

gave mine a bath and got a new tire (Baja Claw's don't like barbed wire). Other than that she's still waiting for me to quit being lazy and put on the BL.

Sure did! I didn't want to pay the $35 on their site for it, but since i got itpriced matched at $25, my time making something else work is worth that.

used my one day off for the week to wash the truck

very thoroughly i might add, 3 different positions on the car ramps lol

also used some leftover spray paint to recoat my sliders and had just enough to finally coat my crossmember, discolored gap gaurds, rear wheel wells, hook, and the exposed frame in the wheel wells...then i shot myself in the face with a broken can of spray paint. lol
