Ehh, I kinda wish I would have went blackwall out. Oh well, hindsight is 20/20. They look fine though.

Never heard of it. Sounds like a great place though :) How long ago was that though? BFGs skyrocketed in price in like 2008. Last year most tires increased 12% in price and the same again this year in February. Kinda why I bought them now.

Here is some mounted sauce:



Little blurry, it's cool and i was shivering lol

Thanks! Yeah it has come a long way, just like everyone's trucks on here really. It's funny to go to the project threads and look through the first 10 posts. Seeing Zach's truck when it was running the 4.0 and a D30 is like looking back in time. Same with the pics of Shane's truck when he was cranking his t-bars and running 33s LOL

I disagree, blackwalls are needed for a all black truck like mine. whitewall out looked bad.

Well I went out friday and took a few pics with the nice camera. I haven't ever used it before and I realized I didn't have the driver installed to upload pics off it. So I'm in the process of installing the CD it came with and it isn't going very well. Hopefully I can get it to work and do some picture wh*ring.

Tires and Rims look nice and no matter what choice you should be happy with your purchase.
