I think there is a thread on here with Turbo Bob's Tundra in a similar shade. He went with Method wheels .

lol. I think it's more accurate of short guys with short units in big trucks though...

Sounds like someone packing a Vienna sausage might say.

I think the dude's with the gigantic lifted trucks are the ones with micros and daddy issues.....

I'm totally just joking, it was a funny reel I saw on facebook and it forced me to post it when it came to the Honda Ridgeline comment at the end.

You can't hurt my feelings any worse than my buddies when they saw my circumcised Honda Pilot hahahaha

Looks good! It fits!

So finally decided on the rims, TRD 18" wrapped with some 275 65 18 BfGoodrich KO2s, I think they look great with the grey truck

And one out in the sunshine!!

Nice, I think the more aggressive tire has just as much effect on the appearance as the new wheels.

Fobroader · « **Reply #211 on:** June 28, 2024, 12:37:08 pm »

Yeah, I like that. Surprising thing, the KO2s are quieter than the top grade, chineseum winter tires that were on there. Plus it no longer has a thump at low speeds nor does it pull to the right.

PJungnitsch · « **Reply #212 on:** June 28, 2024, 12:51:57 pm »

Yeah, both together they give the truck a bit of a brutalist look that suits it

Nice!!

Awesome choice. I think those are the best wheels for that truck.

Looks great! K02s are seriously impressive. Are you planning to run winters or try the K02s year round? I've heard they're pretty decent in winter conditions.

Looks good. K02s are good in snow, not so much on ice as it it's a compound issue.

Thanks, no I am planning on getting some studded Hakkas for the 20" rims that came with the truck. I've had nothing but awesome luck and experience with them so I might as well continue on with them.

Looks so good! Congrats Fob.

And yes Hakka 10s are amazing. We decided to try the North 9 thinking they were the same as Hakka 10 but they don’t bite nearly as well and are no better than a good studless tire.

Yeah, we got the Michelin North 4 studded on the RX and while they are fine, they are not nearly the Hakka 10's on the Crosstrek

Of course the vehicles are different, but still thinking a couple hundred extra would have have been money well spent. 'Buy once, cry once'
