Re: Put the stock wheels back on PICS
Looks fantastic. What tire are you running. And I need to find stock wheels. I have them from the. The 2wheel frame but now I am 4 wheel and I don't think they will fit.

Re: Put the stock wheels back on PICS
Beautiful. I did exactly the same thing to my K10 a year ago. I tried to get the 9.50's but was told they were temporarily unavailable so I went with the 10.50's. So are they available again?
