All the Mickey love does have me curious. I won't be able to get anything until next Tuesday and the K03's are in the lead right now, but the support for the Thompsons is impressive and says a lot.
I also found a set of 285/75/17 Toyo AT III's "C"locally, dealer just needs to order in a 5th...
K03 was my intial choice, both Discount Tires I went to told me not to get them, that they haven't been able to balance a set of properly yet. Might take the risk though.
Can't decide and tired of research. OEM K02's are shot. Want to order these at lunch today or tomorrow.

- Good amount of backroad driving (Gravel and dirt...
Seriously. Between the windows and the manual trans, there is never any peace in this car. Trying to creep along on a slow, 5-15 mph nature drive in this thing there is just no way to enjoy the outdoors. One of the girls in the car was like, "This car is giving me anxiety" because between the...
Ford mobile service approved mine and it's not just the cover, it's the whole assembly. Once mine cracked though, the crack got really bad really fast. Whole thing split all the way through.
What about the extended warranty bought through the Ford dealer, 10 year 100,000 mile? Is that still valid? If so I might be making the drive from Ft Myers to see you next month.
Damn it, I would have bought these in a heartbeat had I known they existed. I’m living in my 4 door for a month and haven’t had the windows installed since I received it back in January. I had to bring them with though because of the insane bugs up north. This would have been much better.
I wouldn't worry about the cold soak too much, mine does it and I live in SW Florida now. A little bit at idle, but first and second gear also until about 19 miles an hour and then it disappears. Goes away after about a mile of driving though. It's not obnoxious by any means, but it's noticeable...
Slightly off-topic question, but is there any demand at all for a 2-door MIC hardtop? Not the whole car, just the top. Tossing on a TrekTop as soon as I get my CG 7MT in a few weeks.
Does anyone buy these things as a back-up? Ideally I'd like to cover the cost of the Bestop with the sale of the...
I wouldn’t get your hopes too high on the hardtop being quieter, if they are any quieter I sure couldn’t tell. I was thinking the same thing, except I wanted a hardtop so I could use some existing yakima gear.
I’ve been transferred for work 3 times since I ordered my bronco. Finally picked it up in Nashville back in January during an ice storm. Have since moved to SW Florida. At 64 degrees in the morning, I have it. But not at idle. Between 7 and 19 mph in 1st and 2nd, it churns like the butter is...
