Re: Hello, new member from Iceland.

Welcome aboard. Looking at Icelandic 4x4's makes me feel a little silly about my concern of going from 33" tires to 35". I can't imagine 44" tires on my van!

Re: Hello, new member from Iceland.

Welcome to the forum Mike.
I always like looking at the big rigs from Iceland. I think there is a company there that modifies the Toyota Hilux with 44's. Very cool and necessary for the type of wheeling you do.

Re: Hello, new member from Iceland.

Phil.....your wife will never ok 44's. She would be fine if you went to Iceland though! The pics are fantastic...what was the outside temp? SMB people from California have nothing on these hardcore Icelanders!!! How great it would be if we could ship our SMB's to Iceland for a confab? My wife is Norwegian and I'm 1/2 Swedish...isn't that just down the road?
