    Thats the plan when i get my 20s from Beef Nachos!

    17x9 is nice and wide. Should suit some 35s perfectly. I like your plan on the regearing and cutting all at once. You going to try and find some 285s to trade your skinnies for?

    20s will be nice I’ve seen those in black.
    Trade nah, I may acquire some 285s soon off of someone. I may mount the skinny’s back on the stock rims an sell. If the 285 deal falls thru just gonna ride these out till the wires show then get new 285s

    No sir, dont have one of those.. yet.. so fabbing up one of these will likely be way down the road, but good to know it doesnt seem too hard to do. I think there was a fabricator on here in East TX somewhere that did custom skids a while back. Not sure what happened to him

    I've been wanting to see a set in person, i think they'll look slick in gloss black. I think Maner is going to help me paint the ones im getting, as they're silver. Probably gonna run em silver though for a little while and see how i like it

    Gonna stick with ST maxx when you get 285s? or get some STT Pros like Brandin?

    I had MTs by Goodyear a while back never again on a DD. The noise was unbearable the Coopers are a little to aggressive for the amount of driving I do but have been great.

    I just bought a smallish craftsman toolbox. I plan on repainting it and making it nice again. Does anyone have a sandblaster I could use? I can bring you some beer!
