Sorry bro, but you lost me with that. I love trucks with big hoops, but this "no profile" thing with the tires don't work for me.

Can you say trailer queen? Lol, I'm with N2TRUX on this one, you hit a rock or turn at more than 30mph and you need a new wheel.

not to get too far off topic, I have to agree aswell.

Nice rims though, I like the design.

wyattglock · 12-11-2010, 02:29 PM

Those are some cool looking rims! Not my cup of tea, but they would still look awesome on the right truck.

snoopy · 12-11-2010, 06:27 PM

Yes they are 26's. The truck will get driven very little so it will be a trailer queen, but it will be a nice trailer queen.

WATS THE POINT?
trucks made to be driven...

justpball · 12-11-2010, 07:21 PM

cant wait to see them on there bro! are you going to be able to ride low? will you be able to turn low is what I am asking? I know nates stuff moves you in a little so I would love to see these all tucked up in there riding low.

snoopy · 12-11-2010, 07:39 PM

It should be able to be driven low since Nate is building the whole frame. The point in building the truck is to try and make the cover of street trucks or truckin.

Good luck! That is something I would like to accomplish also. To be honest I would be happy with a feature in the "busted knuckles or blood sweat and gears" section.

I can't wait to see more on this!! I can remember when people thought 40 series tires were too thin! And 17inch wheels were too big! Look where we are today! I do understand where you all are coming from on both sides but as long as he likes it, that's all that matters, and I'm sure we all are aware of this!

I'd like to see how it comes out. Build it for yourself and don't worry about what others like. If they aren't chipping in any cash then it don't matter what they like.

Jonboy · 12-13-2010, 10:33 AM

Wow. Can't wait to see the rest of the truck, too.
