Re: Made my first big purchase (gulp)
Cool! I really like like that style. I haven't got started on my truck yet but that type of wheel crossed my mind. The only thing holdin me back is I'm goin with big 4 wheel disc and I would hate to cover em up.

Re: Made my first big purchase (gulp)
Are those the ones Matt had up for sale, or just the same style as his were?

Just kidding, I know what you meant to say. Too smooth for me, but cool that you got new wheels.

Those wheels reming me of Dune Runners they used to make when sand rails were just getting popular.

The size difference on the tred had to do with wanting a bit more sidewall on the front of the vehicle. 45 is thing, but 35 on the front would just HAVE to ride awful. I work for a tire store, so im not to worried about if they are the wrong ones. Can always swap em out. |
