The rockstars are already looking dated, and trendy, maybe the dub group will help keep them alive.

the Jesse James are a much more time-less design, and the same design that Jesse is running on his Trophy Truck 54.

Remember how a tweed interior and graphics make a car look like the eighties, keep that in mind about fads and trends...

**nlped** · 09-24-2009, 04:40 PM

^^^Hey, I opted for the Kumho Mud Ventures in a 38x15.50r20 on my F*^% F250 and saved a chunk and got over 50K miles out of them before I sold the truck. They do a 37 in Kuhmo too. Just an FYI

**nlped** · 09-24-2009, 05:11 PM

Yep, I had them and can't say enough good things about them. They looked good, but they rode great!!!

Mr.Chevy4x4 · 09-25-2009, 09:29 PM

Been a lurker here for a long time. Getting excited about doing a 5.3 swap on my '87.

It is a very stock (other than being lowered) '87 swb 2wd TBI 305 silverado. I have had it since 2000 and it's been in the family a LONG time. The 305 is starting to get a little weak (like it was ever a power house

). I have lowered it 5/6 with spindles, springs, and flip kit. I think she looks pretty good!

Mike

Here are a couple of pics.
