Finally, Got my 22s on.. - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

camshaftgsxr · 01-28-2012, 04:03 PM

amazing... are you going to have the cutlass in the background match the truck? it looks to be the same color.

muthstryker · 01-28-2012, 04:11 PM

I was in the process of wet sanding the cutlass before I had my hand surgery, Its actually a darker blue. It does look lighter in the pics though.

Gordonr1973 · 01-28-2012, 08:57 PM

Your rims look awesome!

BigMike608 · 01-30-2012, 10:04 AM

Perfect!

VA72C10 · 01-30-2012, 02:05 PM

very nice!!!

54Caddy · 01-30-2012, 02:17 PM

Get more pictures of that bed cover and which one is it. I like it, and also up close can you see the center supports of it bowing up in the vinyal?

muthstryker · 01-30-2012, 02:39 PM

Thanks guys!

54caddy here are some older pics for you. You cant see the supports at all, the cover is Access Vanish. The lowest profile one I ever found, I love it!

muthstryker · 01-30-2012, 02:39 PM

Oh ya, its 100% bolt on. No drilling what so ever.

54Caddy · 01-30-2012, 02:44 PM

Does it lift up with gas struts or just a simple cover? Just looked them up on youtube there a roll up design look nice i want one now ahaha

muthstryker · 01-30-2012, 02:54 PM

It rolls up, I can take some more pics of how it works if you want. Its pretty basic.

**N2TRUX** · 01-30-2012, 07:15 PM

Love the look. The rear tires are a bit thin for my tastes though.

muthstryker · 01-30-2012, 07:30 PM

Ya they are a bit thin, but when it comes to staggered tire sizes in 22s there just isnt many options.

PRUNEDA · 01-30-2012, 11:28 PM

Looks awesome, what backspace did you go with on the rear wheels?

muthstryker · 01-30-2012, 11:30 PM

I went with a 5.5" backspace on the rear. The wheel is perfectly centered

muthstryker · 01-31-2012, 01:58 AM

To bag, or not to bag. That is the question.

Ill be honest with you, I cant stop looking at that picture and its now my computer screen back ground.

VA72C10 · 01-31-2012, 02:42 AM

Something about tucking big billet....

your truck looks awesome either way...it's just extra awesome with the wheels tucked in more...

Jewbacca · 01-31-2012, 03:06 AM

Looks awesome! But for sure lay it out.

slammed427 · 01-31-2012, 04:24 AM

I'm loving those wheels, can I get the details on them?

Rushforth Concept I. Front - 22X8.5 5.25 backspace and a 255/35/22 tire. Rear - 22x10 5.5" backspace and a 285/30/22

cory d · 01-31-2012, 05:02 AM

are you going to take it to any local car shows? i wouldnt mind seeing this thing in person

Pro Performance · 01-31-2012, 05:03 AM

I say bag it! If you don't, you will be wishing the whole time you did.

muthstryker · 01-31-2012, 10:13 AM

I probably wont be taking it to any shows as I really just dont know what shows they have here. I might go to the albertsons parking lot in clearview a few times.

Thanks! I'd leave it static for now, bags can come later, just cruise her.
