    Import of parts to Europe and European alternatives - All experiences welcome

    I Wanted to start this topic to share all experiences about import to Europe and possible alternatives for American products that are available in Europe. I personally am from Belgium and drive a Jeep Wrangler JKU, and finding parts and gear can be a pain in the ***. I read about a lot of...

    Christmas in Oman with Land Cruiser 150

    Really Nice Pictures! And an excellent way to compare different generations of Land Cruisers. True about the Hilux being really desirable there. Put mine up for sale and most that are interested are planning to export it to North Africa or the Middle East. Since you mention climbing gear, I...

    Yokohama Geolander P265/70 R17: good compromise between overlanding and daily drive?

    Good to hear. I was concerned after reading a review from someone who got only 25.000 km with them. I Should probably mention I have General Grabbers AT2's on my Hilux now (265/65 R17 112T). And while I didn't do a lot of heavy stuff with the Hilux due to it being a company car, I'm glad wit...

    Yokohama Geolander P265/70 R17: good compromise between overlanding and daily drive?

    Can I conclude from your name that you were born in '87 and drive a JKU? Just like me in that case! :-) Well, I'm going with a roof rack and tent and steel bumper and winch, so that will add a lot of weight. Problem with the lift is that here in Belgium you are only allowed to have a 5cm lift...

    Yokohama Geolander P265/70 R17: good compromise between overlanding and daily drive?

    I'm looking in to the Cooper AT/3 at the moment and they do get better reviews. I'm just biased to the Geolander, because it's the only good tire my dealer will trade in for the stock tires. So although I know the Cooper AT/3 may be better fit for my goals, I'm trying to conclude if the...

    Yokohama Geolander P265/70 R17: good compromise between overlanding and daily drive?

    Iceland in summer should be little snow from what i've seen. And In Europe we haven't had much snow over the last two winters. However, I'm keeping my original rims in case I would want a more snow or heavy offroad tire to switch to from time to time. May I ask which tire size you went with for...

    Yokohama Geolander P265/70 R17: good compromise between overlanding and daily drive?

    Thanks for looking into it. Seems like I need to expand my tire knowledge, since I don't know a whole lot about load rating. Would a higher load rating influence road performance much? Just to be clear, it's not intended for rock crawling. Think more river crossing, mud, gravel, vulcanic ash...

    Yokohama Geolander P265/70 R17: good compromise between overlanding and daily drive?

    Since I am new to this forum, I'll introduce myself first. I have always been passionate about offroad vehicles, ever since my father took me with him as a little kid on trails with his MOD Defender. My current car is A 2010 Toyota Hilux. Thanks to a great trade in deal, I have just purchased a...
