With 2.2's on the 4DR body, they look like 54" tires. lol Looks cool, but way too excessive.

Just north of Reno Towards Pyramid lake, about a 30min drive. Go north on Pyramid HWY, take a left on winnemucca ranch rd, and turn left about 4-5miles down the road, just shortly after it turns to dirt.

We just had the first Comp in the winter Series for 775RC just a lil bit ago here. Great comp/scaler area.

Man am I jealous. I live in Michigan and we don't have stuff like that. NOw if you want mud I can help you. That looks like a perfect spot. It looks like you can crawl in your own vehicle and then crawl with your scaler. Jealous.

i think it looks badass with the SXs on it and it worked great yesterday, that rig flat gets it. it was going up things that where epic for a scaler.
