another pic

[CBR_Raven]

those pics are not that great...i will take more when i get the rig cleaned up.

[tomp]

I don't think the pics do them justice because of the glare. Try and get some better pics.

How much were those tires each?

Too much wheel, not enough tire, especially with an off-road tire like that.

[H3HUMVEE]

those tires look like the BFG Krawler T/A's

[CBR_Raven]

no, those pics don't do them justice at all. i just did it to get a couple of quick photos of the rig. the tires alone were $2700 OTD...mount and balance included with locking lugs.

How's the rubbing issuehttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[timgco]

That looks damn good!!!!!!

[tomp]

I actually like the "look" of it!

I got these 5 tires for $1625.00 OTD mounted and balanced and are 13.5" widehttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif http://elcova.com/groupee/forums/a/tpc/f/2606011751/m/1121087051

Now all you need is to mod the step tubes like OC did.

[VTSTOMPER]

I like it! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[JohnB.GWU.]

[HummBob]

Congrats...I think they look SHARP http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

Great Look http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif I Love the matching spare!

How tall are those tires? The truck looks lifted, I like the spacing...

Mark

[Alan06SUT]

Nice, not the look I go for but looks good. The bling wheels lokk much better with real tires than when they put rubber band street tires on.

[mstams]

Yep. Looks great. I think I would have gone with 20's just to keep a little more meat on the tires. But I love the look of the wheels.

They look good. Not very practical for anything more than mild offroading, which is fine if that's all you do. Waaaay better than lo-pro street tires!

If you like that setup, you might want to think about one of these grills to complement the wheels...

[Boss Hoss]

Looks sweet CBR--id pimp it http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

[CBR_Raven]

thanks for all the compliments guys. i was contemplating trading my rig in for an '06 but since i put so much into my '03, i think that i'll just keep it and maybe buy another when they actually make some major changes. it seems like everytime i add something to my rig, it feels brand new all over again. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Looks awesome!

I have the same set up ready to install, my truck will be here in three weeks. I got my wheels black chromed though. I got the tires from Discount tire for $2200 and you can get the wheels from eBay for $1400, there used to be a guy who sold them for about $1000, I can't find him now for some reason. I paid him $1300.

Congrats!!!

[VTSTOMPER]

It rides rougher because you have little to 0 sidewall - same thing with my totally tricked out BMW I used to have. Less air to cusion the bumps and cracks.

[Fubar]

looks pretty cool imo. just don't ever take it off-roading or if you do say good bye to the rims.

[vador99]

Mega bling bling my pimp, yooo!

[NSANE]

Looks good to me.

looks good.... but, with those tires, don't plan on trying to stop on ice!! You'll be a big damn sled coming down the street. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

what makes you say that??? http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif

[twenty2]

I was looking to get those tires as well and the tire shop said that the climate where I live at said it was a "4" on ice. The winters here are pretty icey and said that these tires are horrible on icey streets. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Well we have to see about that. I have a set sitting right next to me and you can only imagine how is the weather over here http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

[twenty2]

let me know how they work out. 'cause I really like the way these tires look http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif. I'd like to prove that tire shop wrong.

[twenty2]

so, it's been a few months with your setup. How's it been? I've been waiting to see if you had any problems?????:)

[CBR_Raven]

sorry for the late reply...i haven't really been on here in a while. anyway, i haven't had any problems with my wheeel and tire setup. they are a little louder on the pavement than the stocl tires but it's no big deal if you have a nice stereo system

[CBR_Raven]

by the way, the rear air suspension was activated when i took those pics...the truck does not have a lift other than the 2" leveling for the front which was added maybe a month after i took those pics
