Nokian Tires
I've had them for over a year... They ride great, perform really well in the snow and ice and seem to wear well. I have well over 10,000 miles on them and am very pleased. -

Any advise for replacing 2nd row seats with front row bucket seats?
If you do end up doing this I REALLY want to see pictures! -

What do you like best about your rig?
1) Comfortable, quiet ride 2) Sure footed in the snow 3) Enough interior space for lots of stuff/people 4) Great styling 5) Weight (I, too, like that it's a big, heavy vehicle) -

Richpike - here are some LR3 & SAN Photos for you!
That's a good looking boat! How much do you think it weighs? -

Santa's got the wrong ride... post snow pics here!
That's really cool! I was wondering if I could pull a city bus! As far as I'm concerned any snow pictures are just fine! -

Santa's got the wrong ride... post snow pics here!
Nope. It IS a Thule 40" faring, but the rack a Brownchurch. I love that it's made the fit the truck specifically (i.e. tapers as it's going back and bolt low, right on the rails) but also that it's got a really low profile. -

need help jump starting
I do the same thing. I know that you're not really supposed to but I'm pretty sure that as long as the cables go on the right order there shouldn't be a problem. -

There really isn't anywhere around here were I can go that fast legally as the freeways top out at 65mph. That said, I usually drive at more like 75mph on them (when they aren't snowy) and have had no vibration issues. They have slightly more road noise than the GYs that came on the truck which... -

LOL, well at least you've got trees. I think that I would miss snow though. Now, my wife would love to move to San Diego and threatens to do just that every year in about March when it's been raining/snowing for 5 months without stopping. Gotta love Oregon. -

Well crap! That's a lot of snow. Do you spend all of your time shoveling? :wink: -

Sweet! I'm going to post it here if you don't mind. Got any snow in the forecast? We're supposed to get a pretty decent amount in the next few days. It's pretty unusual for us to get snow down on the valley floor where I live but apparently we can expect a couple of inches on Sunday night. I'm... -

Though I'm sure it's been done before, I thought that, in the spirit of the season, folks might like to share some snow shots of the LR3. As far as I'm concerned any shot of snow (car, scenery, kids playing, etc...) would be great. I'll start. We got some snow in the hills around here today... -

New owner (finally)!
You could easily run them year round. I have the previous generation WRs on my wife's Honda Pilot and not only do they wear well but they drive great in the snow and ice. I was skeptical as well but after almost three years and two winters of them on the Pilot I'm a believer. They're expensive... -

New owner (finally)!
Welcome! There are aren't all that many tire options available for the LR3 but if you're going to be in the snow a lot and don't need a hardcore off-road tire I would suggest the Nokian WRG2 SUV. Link. There's also the Hakk.. oh, I can't spell it... here they are... -

Do you carry a weapon in your truck?
Not all the time... just when I'm going hunting or going out shooting. Here's me with my HK USP. Most recent addition is a Ruger Gold Label SxS, 12 gauge, gorgeous gun. -

Outfitted and ready to go!
Go Ducks! As for the trail... well it's more like a a short set of muddy ruts just off the road. What you saw me do was the extent of it. I've got a buddy (guy behind the camera) who wanted to see the truck off-road. Oh, and it's in Eugene, not Corvallis, so I wasn't worried about getting... -

Yep, there's just the tiniest bit of rub with the BFGs. What you really want to not do is combine the two and buy the 285/65/18s those will REALLY rub. -

Outfitted and ready to go!
I couldn't tell you. I've only had the BFGs. They're 265/65 18s. The main reason that I went with them (beyond the real off-road chops) is that they're rated for severe snow. -

Outfitted and ready to go!
You caught me! ;-) Yes, those are BFGs. They're a little big so there's a little rubbing when I turn the wheel counter-clockwise to lock but other than that they seem to work great. I went with them because of the severe service rating for snow driving but they handled that muddy hill pretty... -

Looks like I've got her set up about the way I want her for now...
