    Who uses multiple tire/wheel combos?

    Rather than having one tire/wheel set for all conditions; how many of you have multiple sets for varying conditions? I know that a lot of people change from summer to winter tires but how about on-road vs off-road? I prefer a quiet highway tire for long highway travel and a rugged traction...

    Headlight Stone Guards

    I would like to see what some of you have used to protect your expensive factory headlights from stone damage. I want to use something that would not reduce the light output.

    2000 Montero Oil Use Question

    I am looking to buy a 2000 Montero for the asking price of $1500 with 247k miles.
