I own a 1997 Toyota FZJ 80 Limited Edition LandCruiser. For those of you who are aficionados of 4X4s, you already know that this particular year and model is the very best and most capable 4X4 vehicle ever produced anywhere on the planet. I fondly refer to it as my “Range Rover Recovery Vehicle”.
The picture below will give you some small indication of the extreme off-road capability these trucks have. While the vehicle in this picture does have a lift, the ability of the suspension to articulate as you see in this picture can be done by a stone stock LandCruiser.
These vehicles reached their pinnacle in 1997, but went downhill after that year because Toyota started catering to the “Soccer Mom” SUV market instead of the true 4X4 enthusiast.
Yesterday my wife picked up a quarter inch bolt in the passenger front tire. Since the tires were just about gone anyway, I started shopping around for a new set. I’ve always been very fond of Olson Brothers Tirefactory in Milwaukie, and sure enough, I was able to secure a brand new set of Nokian AT 265/75/R16 tires for the amazingly low price of $567.56! Anyone who has shopped for tires recently, and done their homework, knows that Nokian tires are in a completely different universe from all the other tires on the market. You can go unchained on these puppies where others fear to tread with chains!
This is the kind of sweet deal that I really like, Nobody on the internet was able to match or even come close to Olson Brothers Tirefactory’s price on these tires, and I didn’t have to pay for shipping, or wait a week to get them.
Go to Olson Brothers Tirefactory for your automotive needs if you live in the Milwaukie area, they are simply the best. I’ve been dealing with the same front counter people and the same mechanics for probably 12 years now. People that work there, stay there.
These guys are the nicest people in the world, they do quality work, and they stand behind their products and services.
