i had no idea how to start one so i just went all over the place until i saw a tab for a new thread. if its wrong the admins will move it to the right place. and I'm pretty sure he was talking to the guy that said that they look hard and they are rubber.

Yep Trail Grapplers are awesome! Do the chalk test to make sure you are running optimal pressures. FYI I run mine between 45 and 50 psi. Rotating ~5k and maintaining the right tire pressure, I have 47k on them so far. Can easily get over 50k.

Put chalk on your tire tread (I used my son's large sidewalk chalk). Drive forward without turning about 20 ft or until some of the chalk comes off. If there is chalk on the outside edges of the tire it is over-inflated, if chalk remains in the center then it is under-inflated. Ideally want all the chalk to come off.

Bought EBC sport rotors and Greenstuff pads; front only for ~$275 (can't remember). The shop charged me <$200 for labor only.

They remind me of a 90's song by Faith No More. Looks good.
