Default Transformation Tread before/after pics!

Was looking through old pictures and kinda missed what the car looked like before doing all the mods. Thought it might be fun to see others before/after pics....

@MattF @GavinC Tires add to the transformation really nicely. Something I haven't done yet but looking to do so in the next few months!

@GavinC I went with lucky8. Mainly for cost and I liked the coverage underneath. I think the total cost installed at my local shop (not dealer) was ~$3,000 if that helps when looking around. I was in Moab last year on a trail and ended up touching the bottom of the side rail on a rock (no damage) but decided to get them after that for peace of mind. Have definitely accidentally used them a few times through river crossing etc since.
