I've seen some decent deals on eBay, but the shipping costs make some of those deals sour. I was looking for some used-but-good tires, but broke down and bought a set of new BGF 35x12.50x16.5 ATKOs. Made a big difference in the ride.
We gotta have a pic of your prom date climbing into your rig! It'd be priceless. You might want to have a step ladder handy if you want another date.

Well I don't have anything for ya but I thought I'd help ya out of where to look, if you didn't already think of these.
Coloradok5.com always has tires for sale and then check with the local tire dealers. They sometimes have used tires that they aquire that they sell for a reasonable price. That is how I bought my 31's for my 2 wheel drive, will be a little hard to find some 37's laying around though, lol. Get on the phone and call all over for 'em Good luck!

I will make it point to check out coloradak5 though. lol, don't worry, I'll have a camera ready :p I have an old ladder from one of those jumbo trampolines handy if needed but I wanna see how far my date gets with no help... gonna have to pick the right girl for this one ![]() Thanks again for the info and please, keep it coming.

RENT A LIMO!!
My senior prom was May 8, 1987. I picked her up in my 78 #0rd F150 4X4 with 4" lift and 36" mudders. I was holding on to a statement I wanted to make at the time, and continue today. If I were to do it all over again, I would have picked her up in a rented white limo.
You are far better off, having memories and pictures of her and the limo for the prom, then get the truck and Y'all go mudding with the rest of the boys after you showed here a classy eve. Take the advice from someone who has been there ( got married to her in July 1988). When we got divorced in 1997, she through in my face that she had to go to HER senior prom in an old truck. |

Just a side note. When your friends get stuck, jus slip off to a quiet place and show her what a country boy is made off (if you know what I mean).
Please bring protection, or you will end up spending the next 19 years of your life taking care of her and a kid she holds you hostage over, after she decides she wants to spread her wings and experience life away from you. |

You're right, I'll just rent a limo... as long as it's riding on 36's
![]() ![]() ![]() Hey 71blksuper, what lug are the wheels? You're probably right too, I think I'll have to settle for some 35's pretty soon. Again, thanks for the comments everyone. ![]()
