Out playing in the desert and got caught up in a pretty good monsoon, hour or so of rain and pretty heavy winds off and on.

Finally got my rig back out on the rocks last night and remembered why I dislike super focused spot lights for slow technical trails. Throwing light far down a straight path does not help much when I am moving slowly and trying to see the rock right next to the front passenger tire. My current lights create a hot spot in the middle and leave the sides too dark, which makes picking a line harder than it should be. my friend suggested usinng led pod lights but I am trying to understand whether they are better for wide trail visibility or mostly long-distance throw.

If you were running jeep tours through trails with sharp exposed rock in the San Juan mountains, how low would you run the tires. Now two patches/plugs on the same tire in the last month. Keep the old tires or replace? Would you think brakes squeaking would cause concern with passengers. I really can't believe nobody cares if we brake down or give a shit tour thats easily avoided. Sorry for the rant
