You just made me decide to do mine like that. What did you use on the grill. I have your exact h2 but a suv. Same color and rims and ive been wanting to black out my grill but wasn sure, now i am.

Thanks to everyone. I looked long and hard through here to get ideas. Blockrockin, you still have your yellow one? I got a lot of good ideas from you!

It's the stock rear tire carrier, I just cut down the stem to make the center cap fit, then I moved the plates down to a hitch mount.

Re: A LITTLE less Bling!
 
Line-X of Bartlett -- The owners name is Steve, great guy, (847) 622-9232. If you end up getting anything done tell him I sent you.

Great lookin' SUT!!
How is the ride quality on those Nittos? What mad you decide on 12.5 width compared to 13.5 width?

Once again your truck is sharp!

Looks awesome man! How exactly did you black out your side marker lights?

Re: A LITTLE less Bling!
 
I love the Nittos. I think the drive quality is pretty damn good but a bit loud (just got to get used to it). The 35 Nitto doesn't come in a 13.5 and I loved that tire. I couldn't go any bigger becuase of garage clearance issues, as is I can't fit in most places here in downtown Chicago.

I'm not sure how the shop blacked out the lights. I took it to my bodyshop. I know it is some kind of clear coat paint that they put transparent black in.

Thanks for the prompt response!
Sorry to ask another question, but in your own opinion and regardless of garage clearance issues, if you could choose between a 35/12.5/20, 35/13.5/20 or a 325/60/20, what would you choose and why?

Sorry if it's an odd question, it's just that you have these tires and I'm looking for something similar.

Thanks!

Re: A LITTLE less Bling!
 
First and foremost look at the wheel you are considering and the backspacing. I know people on here run 37s with no lift and it depends on your exact H2 (all ride a bit different) but there is no way with the backspacing on the rockstar that I could even come close to running 37s or 13.5 with out some lift or considerably altering the torsion bars (think long and hard before you start cranking on them, it changes things). As I currently sit (stock ride height) I rub when I turn hard if the surface is not 100% level. Also, I am a clean freak and the littlest bit or water on the road covers the side of the truck. Hopefully that helps you make a decision.

Re: A LITTLE less Bling!
 
This might help as well to give you a better perspective of just how far they stick out. They stick out past the tube bars.

Re: A LITTLE less Bling!
 
I can't tell you how helpful you've been! Thanks for the pic, looks fantastic!! Sorry to ask many questions, but what is your offset on the Rockstars? And would a 325/60/20 be similar to your tire size?

Thank you for your help.

Re: A LITTLE less Bling!
 
I want to say 4.5 inches, for some reason that number sticks in my head. SOMEONE CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG PLEASE!

Yea that's pretty damn close that's going to be 35.4x12.8x20 so just slightly bigger.
