Wow, I won something!?!? Thanks guys!! :D

Well all the specs are found here:
http://www.clubxterra.org/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=29

And some more pics (from near stock to almost current) are in the link in my signature.

As for the tires, they are Dick Cepek Crusher radials size 285-75 r16, and they are awesome.

I previously had 31x11.5-16 Super Swamper bias LTB's, and I don't think anything can top them offroad, but I don't think it gets any worse than them ON road.

The Crushers are much better on road, about the same as any mud terrain tire as far as noise/mpg, but they ride pretty smooth and have good traction in rain/snow.

Offroad, they are great. They do not clog with mud at all, since they have great big tread blocks/voids. They also grip great on rocks, even wet rocks, as the sidewalls flex really nicely and the tread does include some siping.

This is about as packed as they ever got, and this was going through sticky clay, other tires look like slicks on the same trail:

And they leave really cool tank-tracks :)

Cool! Glad to hear that about those Crushers. I've been considering them along with Yoko M/T's and SS TSL's. Can't decide whether I'm wanting one that has a little better road manners or just an all-out beast on the trails.

A guy who was selling a shrock bumper online here in utah a few months ago, posted pictures of your X saying that "... this is what the bumper looked like but it isn't mine truck." I just thought I would share that your X is pretty famous.

That's hilarious!! Don't have a link do you?

Cool, Thanks! Funny, the first modified X I saw online was a black first gen. And I saved the pics of it (from the shrock site), and was like... "THAT is what I want!!" and slowly but surely, it looks very similar to that truck. Coincidentally, I now know the guy very well, wheel with him and belong to the same club. The Xterra world is a very small place. :D

This is his truck, RIXterra from XOC and a fellow club officer at NEXterra:

and mine (pretty close, eh?)
