Welcome to the club!

IMHO, your first mod should always be what tires to get. Take your 60 month pro rated warranty from the Oem tires, and put on some Michelin super sports. The a/s 3+ I’m partial to for an all year tire. Awesome in the rain and quiet too,
I got 35K out of the base P zeros, but replaced with the Michelin a/s 3+ and they are a fantastic tire.

I drove from the California/Oregon border to Hatch for the chili festival to have a green chile cheeseburger and all they had was cotton candy etc. what a disappointment ! ( I did have a great meal at one of the restaurants in town though)
That is epic disappointment... man...
Come to Terlingua Chili cook off or Austin anytime.
We’ll hook you up.

Very impressed w AS3 as well.
Alway get them in late fall early winter as they have insane cold wet grip first season before they get heat cycled in summer. During summer the compound gets way tougher from hotter peak temp cycles and they have decent summer grip.

LOL, looking for wheels already with tires.
Going to stick with 19” maybe TOYO tires or Nitto.
Looking for 19x10 19x11 fitment on the forum now.
LOL, so much to read and information love it!

Welcome to the forum, OP! Not from NM, but it's a great state with some great folks and great food. There's a Mexican food place in old Mesilla (Los Cruces) that has some of the best creamy enchilada sauce ever.

As for Texas chili versus NM chili, or red versus green, I like 'em both. :D

Thank you for your service.

:cheers:

The difference is "chile" vs. "chili". Night and day.
I think you're talking about La Posta in old Mesilla... mmmmmm

If it's hot going in it's hot coming out. :eyebulge:
They just opened up a Laguna Burger in Abq, the best green chili cheese burgers, and it's rumored to have craft beer on the menu now. Hope to find out soon. :cheers:
Like someone said green on pizza, cheese burgers and chicken enchiladas, red on anything else. :thumbsup:
