Well I finally got the wheels and tires that I have been wanting, and I have to show them off a little.

Michelin LTX MS LT 285-75R16, on 2002 Factory Aluminum Wheels

Looking real nice with her new shoes on.

Out camping, just what she was built for.

Passenger side view, looking good.

Looks sharp. Tires look a little oversized to me, but it looks good.

Zumo · 03-24-2005, 03:46 PM

I like those wheels on that body style truck.

Nice wheels and truck too! Is that the original paint job? Truck looks real sharp.

TexasJeff · 03-28-2005, 10:00 AM

Pruneda it is new paint, had it painted last April, It is the orginal color, paint code 67 (i think) dark camel.

Hey Jeff,

What did you do for lug nuts to make the late model center caps fit? Did you splurge for the aftermarket morfidite lugs or do you have a secret?

Your truck looks very nice and clean.

TexasJeff · 03-29-2005, 05:17 PM

I found some on ebay, a full set for $39.99. It was well worth the money, I found the right lug nuts at AutoZone, but they wanted like $2.99 a piece.

MylilBowTie · 03-30-2005, 03:28 AM

Have any problem rubbing with those size tires?

TexasJeff · 03-30-2005, 09:48 AM

No rubbing at all, turns from lock to lock no problem.
