Wheels and tires are mounted up finally.

Seems like it took forever but I finally got the tires mounted. Next up is finishing the body work/paint.

Re: Wheels and tires are mounted up finally.

Looks perfect.
Are those 18's and 20's?

Also,...I didn't realize you were repainting it.

they are 20"s all around, wierd in the these pictures the front do look a lot smaller?

I got tired of looking at the maaco paint on it so Gerald (driveway dreams) has been helping me or maybe I should say I've been helping him with it. Still need a patch panel, fender but we should be ready for paint soon. Here is a photoshop of what I'm going for

Re: Wheels and tires are mounted up finally.

Right now the suspension is the same(3" spindle cut coil, flip kit 1/2" lift shackle) but I have all of the air suspension except for the 4-link which Nathan at porterbuilt is working on right now.

they are Coys C57 w/bfg 245-40 fronts and 295-40 rears. I think the finish looks great, much better than polished.

menace121978- I think I may have him in trouble with his wife, I keep begging and trying to bribe him to come down here and work on this thing I dont think I'm her favorite person right now.
