    Sevenmile 5/18
    Lauren in a deep crossing

    Me getting ready to use my sliders for the first time

    little flexin

    There is some armor under there

    From the other side

    May have aired down a little too much, but the km2s worked like champs

    Wow, who is that handsome guy?!

    Oh wait, his short ass can barely get into his own truck...

    Lauren flexes it out too

    Awesome!! I think the KM2s can take low pressure pretty well, I'd be concerned about popping a bead. how low were they?

    255/85/16, E rated, approx 15psi., but due to gauge readout (it was below the lowest measured reading, which was 20psi) I guess it could have been as low as 10. However, I was perched on top of that rock and the weight was getting pulled off towards the passenger side though. And I had five people in the cab. Not sure that all that could make that much difference...

    10-15 is just fine for that truck. you wont be pushing its limits hard enough to expose an issue at those PSI levels. thanx for the pics!

    Thanks! We had a blast. Now I have to keep my nose on the grindstone until I leave for Moab because I have plenty of crap to do to get ready.

    your comanche will do fine at seven mile. the main trail is really easy. some of the side trails have some tougher spots where you might have a little trouble though

    I agree with Alex, your Comanche will do great. There are a few places where the rocks have been washed out around them so they stick up more, but choose a good line and you will be fine. Just make sure your tires are good because some of the rocks can get a little pointy!

    I regularly take all three of my jeeps down to 15 lbs of pressure, and have taken the CJ down to 8 lbs when rockcrawling without an issue.

    Do your sidewalls flex that much?
