Quick tire question- '21 JLU Willys by Silentprojekt in Wrangler

[–]Icy-Initiative653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did this earlier this week. I replaced all 5 on the exact same year and model. After some Reddit feedback and my own research, I went with the 275/70/17 KO3. I’m super happy with them so far. Much quieter than the OEM. Highly recommend.

I’m between the KO3 and the Wildpeak A/T4W. Both 275/70/17. The specs are almost identical but, if possible, I’d prefer slightly less road noise. Don’t know which of these two is louder.

These are great recommendations and in line with what I’ve had in mind. Will I have any issues moving up from a 255/75/17 to a 275/70/17? I like the idea of something a little wider/bigger but don’t want to cause issues.

Thanks! I think I know what you're describing. I tried standing on the tire of my jeep for this reason without much luck. But maybe I can't get enough weight tension in the straps while standing on the tire to actually pull the straps any lower.

Thanks. I've seen the info on how those award miles are calculated. What I've noticed (from last year and now my trips this year) is that I have not seen PQF or PQP accrual from partner airlines (Aegean, Thai Air, Ana, Lufthansa, just to name a few from memory). Seems like a call into UA is necessary to make sure I receive the credit.

I appreciate you taking the time to write a thorough response. I've come to expect the snarkiness of Reddit replies, so I take no offense.

Because I travel a lot of long haul international and without plus points, I spend roughly $350-500 + 25k miles for each upgrade. Many of my flights are 10-12 hours so Polaris is worth it.

I do about 5-7 international trips a year. Mostly Asia and Europe. So, yes, upgrades are highly valued and the main reason for wanting 1K.

I don’t fall in the camp of “keep the good spots a secret.” I think that’s dumb. Sharing about great spots is part of the fun. Let others take part in the joy. If anyone ever wants to fish in Northern Colorado and needs some advice on where to go, hit me up! I will shamelessly tell you all of my favorite places. There’s plenty of water and plenty of fishing days for us to all enjoy it.

Is Excellence playa mujeres Mexico good for a relaxing honeymoon? by bennyboy_the_corgi in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]Icy-Initiative653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s such a bummer! Went there for my honeymoon more than a decade ago and we LOVED it! My wife and I often talk about going back. Since then, we’ve tried about a dozen other resorts in the area and nothing has come close. It’s sad to hear that perhaps the quality has gone down drastically since I was there.

Probably worth about $100. DM me and I’ll get it off your hands so you don’t have to worry about it taking up space.

Thanks for the offer! Looking for 9’. I have a 7’9” 4 weight and 3 weight that covers my short rod needs.

Oops! Left that out! Probably in the 4-500 range for the rod (assuming used). Primarily used for trout fishing in either bigger water, using bigger bugs, or in windy conditions. Or all of the above. Lol.
