I'm hopin to have the lux by then, minimum I need to do is snorkel/towhooks/breathers, and Im in!!!

YEAH BABY, YEAH!!!!

I'm gonna totally own the sheffield!!!!

not

but I'm stupid and ignorant enough that it just might work....

lol Goose, you crack me up mate.
Aye I'm hopin to get the ol' FJ on the road by then too, got bugger all left to do. It may be a few different colours and have skinny SATs on it but I'm keen to give the old girl a test. May not strictly need to worry bout the warrant an stuff either as it's literally across the road from where I live.

SAT's a? You dont happen to have a spare set lyin about do you?

I.ve heard the luxies go pretty good on them, equivelent to about 32"...

Nah mate sorry, the project FJ came with them on so I'll stick with em and see how she goes, had some on the Lada and they actually gripped surprisingly well. They'll do until I can afford some 33s or 35s anyway.

SAT's arnt allowed...sorry guys,

ive paid etc but now ive started tinkering it wont be ready for it so ohwell

k, so I'm not really sure what an SAT tyre is . I've seen Land Rovers on tyres similar to what's on my FJ and what were on my Lada described as SAT or SAT style.
What is the definition/meaning of SAT? The FJ has 16" tyres, narrow, look like crossplies with a strong zig-zag tread and pretty chunky on the shoulder.

Excuse my ignorance.

Found some Firestone Super All Traction tyres on Trademe, is that the thing? The tyres on my FJ definitely look pretty much like those althoug they're not Firestone branded tyres.
What's the deal with them not being allowed Ruf?

SAT stands for super all traction

yeah, thats an SAT my son, sometimes called "farmer specials".

And rufzuk, no sat's allowed?? whats up with that? They're hardly a match for what half the other vehicles are gonna be on.... and if not sat's, I'll be running 215/15 duellers, and that'll just plain suk!!

oh well, not like I was gonna win anyway.....but I might of!!!!

neeehhhh, grumble grumble stupid-no-sat-rule grumble grumble

hey mongoose, you might have to find some tyres for the cruiser...

You could always walk it in your SAT gummys Goose. Or come and borrow my swampers.

why would i borrow your swampers??? you are going aren't you??!!

besides, i think i'd need a gas-axe to make enough room for the swampers, it's only a standard surf!!

was thinkin about it last night, (hardly slept a wink, worried about the "no sat" rule) the guy I'm buyin it off (good mate) has a spare set of 31"s I might be able to borrow for sheffield.....

you better be going Rok!!!!!

Or i'll tell everyone there that you're a big fraidy cat!!! 8-O

Yeah I'm going, but only to spectate. Going out in the playdoh (prado) so I don,t get tempted.

I only end up showing off in front of so many people and breaking things real bad.

9" grinders don't only work on IFS, I can sort your gaurds out for you in 30 mins or so. Tyres will fit then (won't be pretty though )

one word rok.
no.

If it helps, I can make them fit in a much neater way... will take much longer than 30 minutes tho

Steve

it says on the entry form "no tractors tyres in any class", i got mixed up with what SAT's were, i thought they were the "V" shaped tractor tyre things, sorry about the confusion, just forget i even made the comment...

haha, all is forgiven, my son. say 3 hail mary's and lift my robes.....

DODGY....... explains why church boys have parted hair....
EW

hehe, and steve, if rok's offering to GIVE them to me, I might just take you up on that....what do you say, rok??!!!

oh, and steve....the guy with the rugger from the other week wants to know how much you would charge to do a spring over on it?

He's got cash, and he aint afraid to spend it!!
