Pitting Chrome Wheels

[mikejr]

MDimitri - thanks for the link, i'll check it out. i've been using Mother's products for ages, i am pleased with the results they give. I use their Back to Black on the plastic trim and it makes it shine great.

Boss Hoss - I agree there are some tire/rim combo's that look great. you have pics of yours? My daughter wants me to get some blingy rims on the H2...i pity the poor guy that marries her in 40 years...yes she's not dating till she's 50...LOL

Genob - I'll keep my eyes open for you. If you are ever in Lower Burrell look me up we have our business on the main drag through town. I've got company logos on my truck. I cant recall what the dark blue color is called.

my cousin lives in lower burrell, he's off of that main strip about a mile down the road past the Rita's. (i can't remember the name of that road).

I always have to go down 28 across that bridge then make a left at the gas station (i think it's a BP?) to get to his house...

I'm much more familiar with the city and monroeville area (i grew up in the city).

When i head back over to his house, i'll keep a look out for the hummer!

You gotta gotta get some 24" bling bling wheels with a matching spinner gold chain jk!

Genob,

Well if you keep heading up on past Ritas, past Clemintines you will see our real estate company office just past Clemintines on the right. Big blue house with lots of windows, parking behind the building.

you know i like the looks of the bling....but not sure its for me. Somehow putting the low profile tires on to me just makes it look not as rugged or something...just my opinion.

i am hoping they have a 2008 at the pittsburgh car show...i am dying to see the interior in person.

What you cannot gather from these pics is the "beefy" stance it gives. Fist the tires are considerably wider from running a 35 x 13.50-20 and stretched a bit by a wide rim(20 x 10) and the rims themselve have a bit of offset so they stick out a bit. My truck looks considerably wider than a stock H2.

Genob....let me know how it goes when you call the dealer. I have to make an appointment for general maintenance next week so i'll be asking about new rims too.

Boss ...nice looking rig. You are right it does have a wider stance than the stock wheel/tire set up. Do you catch any flack from the inspection people? I know in PA if your wheels are too wide they will ding you on the yearly safety inspection. How much do you have tied up in the wheel/tire combo? I've not been one to do much aftermarket stuff on my vehicles so i havent a clue what stuff even costs.
