TrXus STS - All Terrain

The TrXus STS, the STS stands for Three Stage Sidewall, is a new concept in all terrain tires. These tires are not intended to be a substitute for the Super Swamper or Bogger tires but a tire for you if you spend a lot of time on the street. Besides working so well on the street it has good off road performance and excels in snow and sand. It is also very much at home in the rocks and will impress anyone with its all around performance. This tire is going to set a new standard in the all terrain category.

I thought Rancho only makes a 4" lift?

Just read the sidewall. Then have an alignment done.

Yes, this is VERY important. The reading of the sidewall often puts the front end completely out of whack. An alignment is necessary afterwards. If you read War and Peace while driving, you need to have a front end alignment and then rotate all tires, which makes it necessary for a second alignment. Reading the Los Angeles Times while driving is just a complete waste of time, makes your rig capable of left turns only, and voids your manufacturer's warranty alltogether.

I think you're right!! Actually, I like the 4" lift better. I also found out that the tires are indeed TrXus STS. All together, the rear differential is lifted up 2" higher than stock.

It appears as though it's turning out to be something I really want. Now for the serious leg work of getting the price dropped just a bit.

I'll fill everyone in on the outcome!!

Problem occurred!! I acquired a loan for the balance minus the 20K I'd put down but they want me to get rid of my boring truck. Can't really do that when it comes to a dealer out of state. *&%#@**@%!!!! and I like having the truck around for moving things, ect. if I'm not purchasing an SUT.

I've contacted my normal dealer who is going to find me an SUT through auction. I have to get rid of the truck so I will definitely need an SUT. It appears as though that's the way I have to go.

Now I'm waiting on my dealer. It sucks being Hummerless!

Just to make myself feel better, I didn't like the color anyway!! If anyone else out there liked that one, you could probably pick it up for $33,500. PM me and I'll give you the info.....damnit!
