Had a similar experience...couldn't get them balanced and ended up ditching them. As far as price they aren't cheaper...had a sales guy from Kal quote me a price last week and they were $313/tire for 275/65/18 I went to fountain tire and paid $299/tire for 295/65/18 and got a $40 mail in rebate...
So let me get this straight....If you work in the patch and make money you are pig? These are the guys who leave the trash all over and ruin it for everyone else....Interesting.
So nobody else ever leaves a mess or "acts like they own the place" just those over paid oil patch guys? I hate...
There are lots of places to ride right from town, you can get maps from the Glacier hotel...There is Parberry, North Blue, The Grail, Horseshoe, Coulies, White River,and Paradise that I know of, anyone that says you can't ride from town doesn't know the area.
If you need a guide for the area...
Anybody been into Grail or North Blue this week?
We broke trail in there with 2 other groups on the 28th but only made it to the bottom of Blue and Grail before running out of daylight....snow was waist deep and untouched.
Tried the belt drive on my last sled and didn't really see any advantage over the chain...I think for the cost you could do a lot of better upgrades.
As far as reliability they were no better than the Chain...My group had 4 sleds running them (C3) and we all put between 2500 and 2800km on.
All...
Its great everyone is concerned how well the sleds are secured to the deck but how many people secure the deck to the truck properly?
I see lots of decks secured to the "D rings" in the box with turnsbuckles....In a head on collision what's the odds these are going to hold?
Actually the Chevy's still have good lighting its just the GMC that has the terrible lights...we have both 2015 Chevy and GMC for work trucks and no issues with the Chevy lights.
Mine runs from the time it leaves the shop until the time it gets back...2 deep cycle batteries also and we are good on 4-5 day trips.
We try to plug into the hotel every other night if possible just to charge everything up
Would hate to see the Oilers get either McDavid or Eichle in this upcoming draft...they would just ruin them like the rest of the spoiled first rounders we have
