Getting a cracked aluminum alloy wheel repaired. Thanks to winter potholes and reckless driving on my part, one of my low profile aluminum alloy wheels has a small crack...

Might give a call to Ehrlich Motorwerks in Siloam Springs. They won’t do it for you, but probably know who can.

Alloy Wheel Repair Specialists 1-877-859-4335 They are mobile and go around to dealerships, so you will probably just leave your car at a nearby dealer. http://www.awrsmidwest.com Just a heads up though, last time I used them it was closer to $150.

Don't get ripped off, it's a very easy job as long as you got a torque wrench. I had it done in 25 minutes. This is the one I used and so far has held up since I put it in
I have a 2003 Land Cruiser. Looking to lift it and go up a couple sizes in tires, where's the best place to get a lift that won't break the bank and still be quality?

What size are you looking to go to. Some people are running 35", but a combination of body and suspension lfts are needed if you want to actually use if off road. Most seem to go up to 275/70R18 (33") which can be put on stock. One of the main issues is tire width, in that the sidewall will rub on the control arms at full lock. Read through the 100 series board at IH8Mud.com for more info.
Can't find a tire shop that will mount 31 x 10.5 x 15 BFG ATs on my FJ40 OEM wheels. I know it's possible. Any suggestions?
Rick S. replied:
Harbor Freight has a manual tire changer for $42 (around $34 with 20% coupon). I wonder if that would work. You can YouTube instructions on using it.

Bought my 33 x10.5 s at Discount Tire and they wouldn’t mount them either. I had to remind the Manager of all the cash I spend at the store and he had a change of heart. Find a mom and Pop shop.
Hey guys!

Discovered some funky tire wear on the driver's front tire seems to have come on suddenly, I guess it's possible...

Check your wheel bearings first thing and your alignment. Georg@Valley Hybrids & Cruiser Brothers

If you can feel any "wiggle" in the wheel bearings with the tires off the ground, well then they're too loose. Check TREs, steering box, suspension bushings, u-bolts. Georg@Valley Hybrids & Cruiser Brothers
Taking the 80 thru Yellowstone this weekend. Snow tires installed. Any recommendations?

As you head west turn north just past fishing bridge. Go through the Hayden valley to canyon as the wapiti wolf pack is active there now. And then you can see south rim waterfall. Check out geysertimes.org and look at menu for event predictions. Upper gets basin near old faithful. About 30 minutes between major road junctions. Porcelain basin at Norris is a must see. My girlfriend worked there all summer. Monday was her last day. She is right here and says the only full services area open right now the old faithful area and Mammoth. The road over mount Washburn from canyon to tower is closed for season. Grand prismatic spring is best seen from the Fairy Falls Trail. Drive 1.5 miles south of Midway Geyser Basin and park at Fairy Falls. Walk about .5 miles and look for a sign pointing up to your left. Go about 100 yards and see a fantastic view. This jus opened in mid July. Also, no internet between Canyon and Old Faithful area. Going to West Yellowstone, go to the Running Bear Cafe for lunch or breakfast...yummy
