Before ... After

[H3Hrly]

hey everyone. been a while since last post. i concluded it was time for some changes. here's a pic of Before:


here are pics After: added 315/75/16 Toyo OC M/T (71K on factory, could have stretched it another 7-10K), CBUCP, Superchips Cortex, MaxxTraxx (2), & Purple Cranium. Just need to install some 'skids and i'll be done (well...).

total cost was about $2500. MPGs dropped from 15 -> 12.5 when i did this (tuned to 87 Octane performance). just set tuner to mile saver and hope to raise MPGs back up a bit (on first tank now with MX tune). I LOVE the tires. they fit perfectly and make the H3 look AWESOME. I immediately noticed it sits higher; and even with the Alpha i noticed it takes a bit more to accelerate and brake due to weight of everything being added.

Very nice. With that mpg drop, are you accounting for the difference in tire sizes? For example, my odometer is off by about 4.5% so every 100 miles of indicated travel is actually 104.5 for me.

 

[H3Hrly]

oh yeah!! i forgot about that. i think for mine it was ~5.3% difference. SWING!!! thx

Wow, what a diference tires can make in the look of a vehicle. Looking good...are the Hunner skids next?

[Expendable]

Very nice! how u likin the Toyo MTs?

 

[Pappibri]

Nice rig you have there...

 

[H3Ray]

Tires look beefy and manly. But, I would have switched out stock Rims for something different ... My two cents. That rear axle Cover/brace, what does that do?

 

[08SolarFlareH3]

Looks good, what else do you have planned?

 

[H3Hrly]

loving the M/Ts!! still need to put them on the trails

 

[H3Hrly]

H3Ray,
Ya, i would have liked a different set of wheels but couldn't justify the extra expense at this time. my wish would be the KMC XD Spies

 

[H3Hrly]

Good question, Flare. i'm debating the rancho lift next summer. but now i'm leaning more to getting exterior lights (RI brand) on front and back with the otrattw switches. still not certain if i want a winch or not, but time will tell. i think that would be about all i would do.
