I'm not usually a fan of big rims but those look real good on that truck, especially with the black.

Looks good Todd. How do they ride??? I want 18's or 20's, but thats low on the list....

Well I wasnt sure HOW they were going to work being as wide as they are, however it rides better than my 315s do, Once I put em on Tim noticed my track bar had some play in it (Thuren), so I cranked it as much as I could and low and behold it tracks almost perfect, they do follow cracks and things in the road but it is very tolerable, now on a quick measurement they are shorter than the 315s do to the width of the rim, all in all im very happy, also if you look you will see the new Lund tailgate spoiler I scored brand new for $20 , guy has a ton of em left at that price.

[BlkRam1]

[PRattenbury]

We wanna the rims

[jdc753]

looks good for sure. Personally I like a little more rubber, but should look great at the track. Amazing deal too on them, be hard to pass up something like that.


I gotta ask though, what is that outlet sorta looking thing on the lower rocker panel below the fuel door???

Todd, your truck looks better than ever. The rims are great, but the finish on the body is something else. Can you teach me how to get to that point with my old truck? Dang, it's like a black mirror, super looking!!!

I just checked. They're very close to 285/70/17's, except they have 1.5" less sidewall.

Art im not really happy with the finish, its gettin old and beatup, but thats HI-Temp Fast Cut, then Megs swirl remover, then Megs NXT, topped with good ole #16. Art when I did it I used this technique, I did it the older way, its best if you have a good amount of time and a Carnuba that will layer, if its anything with any type of solvent/cleaner it will not work because it will remove the 1st layer, scroll down the page and check out the pink wax, it works awesome and is able to be layered, http://www.fk1usa.com/products-consumer.htm#, here is a copy of the technique of spit shining your car.

Thanks, guys. Hopefully Thurston will be around the country more this coming year.

[Jim]

that does look really good with those rims paul

[PRattenbury]

Looks a lot different than those tall skinnys that were on there. And it's also halfway smooth riding. Not to mention, he's got traction.
