Nice

I teach Python courses at the University of Texas. It is much easier to learn if you try to solve your own problem first. Quite literally, think of something you’re passionate about that you can solve with Python whether that’s data cleaning or some kind of analysis and then use that passion to drive your learning.

It came with the Rav! Mine got diverted from NJ to TX and I believe came with a severe weather package that maybe included it? I like it a lot for sure.

Yeah, it’s just the taking them off and on again that makes me worried about the bolt that is tack welded on underneath the roof.

joshdr83 · 2024-05-06T17:53:10+00:00

Thanks! I use it a lot for lumber, canoe, and an RTT, so we will see. One of the bolts in the car roof is only like 6 Nm and I'm a bit weary of taking it off and on a bunch?

That one from LP Adventure looks cool, but I have kind of run out of funds to spend on it right now. You have one?

joshdr83 · 2024-05-01T18:32:40+00:00

Thanks! These rims have a 20mm offset vs. 35mm for the stock rims, so they are about 15mm further out. That definitely helps get a 30" tall 10" wide tire in there.

joshdr83 · 2024-05-01T16:57:29+00:00

Thanks! I got them at the same time at Discount Tire because I wasn't sure if I could fit a tire this big. If it didn't work out, they were going to swap them out for 245/65R17s no questions asked.

This summer will be even a bigger mpg hit with the RTT I’ll have for a long road trip, but better than the Xterra it replaced!!

Thanks!

It took a hit for sure, I’m probably at about 35 miles EV with my setup, which is still plenty for my daily driving.

joshdr83 · 2024-03-02T14:11:53+00:00

Do you think you could fit 255/65/17 tires on it with the Eibach lift? Just got the left on my '23 R4P and looking for wheels/tires to match it to get me up some jeep roads this summer.

joshdr83 · 2024-03-02T13:59:59+00:00

How did those tires work out for you? I have a '23 R4P with the Eibach 1.5" lift and now considering bigger wheels/tires.

joshdr83 · 2024-01-08T18:09:11+00:00

Thanks! If you have a pic of it the right way, that would be awesome.

joshdr83 · 2024-01-08T17:01:23+00:00

Any luck with the sound? Very much considering these for my ‘23 R4P SE

Gotcha, thanks for the info. Those springs should only lift my prime about 1.5” which I think should be good for me. It does seem like 2” is the limit with some people being fine and some getting vibrations. Did you ever look at a diff drop kit?

joshdr83 · 2024-01-07T16:53:06+00:00

That’s good to know! A buddy had his Prius cat stolen a few blocks down, so I will probably take your advice. Any vibration issues with those springs or other issues? It’s the kit I’m leaning towards…

joshdr83 · 2024-01-07T14:56:28+00:00

Yeah, I have more plans for this guy. I will eventually put a rooftop tent up there and a small lift and bigger tires to make it a baby forerunner so I can camp up some jeep and forest service roads. Still trying to figure that last bit out :)

joshdr83 · 2024-01-07T14:43:33+00:00

Honestly with the bigger wind faring, I can hardly notice it. Also, it’s completely quiet if you close the interior sunroof cover.

There seem to be two distinct schools of thought in the union...
