I'll speak my mind on this. The truck looks like a matchbox, you're wrong on the attitude, and weight on the tires.

My opinion on the gaudy big shiny rims would be this. There is no point to them, they look retarded, they give all of us the wrong impression and some of us find ourselves in real awkward place as to not offend people because of the association with those types of rims. I cannot be up front and clear as to what I am saying with this because I don't want to loose respect or offend someone. I'm simply stating a fact.

As far as your responses to D and Maurice, BOTH of them know what they're talking about as far as their truck's go. While I may disagree with them, they know a hell of a lot more than most on this site. My advice, take the opinions as they are, if you have issue with that, take it elsewhere. This is one of the better sites I'm part of, but people with responses like you bring the site down.

no he's not an offroad guy, atleast with that truck..
i heard DOT limit is like 200 lbs for a tire, if a 35" tire weighs 75 lbs then how the hell does a 54" Bogger weigh in less than 200lbs?? :boggled:

99ranger4x4 12-07-2007 12:04 AM

wagnmastr 01-11-2008 06:11 PM

Hey man you ever come down to Ole Miss. I live on campus and would really like to see that truck in person. Been wanting to do the same thing for a long time.

Flippn03Sonic 01-14-2008 04:20 PM

gangsta

gatorblue92 01-14-2008 05:44 PM

i know this is an old thread but for some strange reason i really like those wheels on that truck

dead 01-17-2008 07:32 PM

Fits the wheel well perfectly. Very nice!

DKM 01-21-2008 08:31 PM

Nice looking truck deadpres!

barrman 01-22-2008 05:27 PM

lol... 24's on a st.cab. spending 4k in wheels for an 8k truck... very clever. ;o)

in all seriousness... nice wheel design, but just too freakin big for that truck, and the rubberband tires look funny.

would have been much nicer with 22's and the same diameter tires, imo.

This is true. Everybody has different ways of looking at things.

My truck stickered for 18 something. I got it brand new. I know it is worth nothing now, but still. I paid 2800 and some change OTD for the rims and tires. I could have spent hundreds less on some bs tires, but I don't buy subpar anything.

These tires should go 75k like my last Toyo Proxies St did. That's a decent investment.

I needed tires for my truck anyways so you can subtract at least 400 from 2800.

I just sold my 20's for $500

My truck would not be stock. So a set of 17, 18, 20 ect with tires would set me back a bit.

It is kind of rediculous, but I like it.

karrbass4life 02-06-2008 08:40 AM

The donk kids will love ya lol.

I'm in shock this thread still exists right now from all that earlier B.S.

i_luv_strats 02-06-2008 12:02 PM

looks a heck of a lot better than most vehicles with ginormous wheels.
