    Talk to TimmyB, he just bought the same one BoxRocket did for cheaper through a different company.

    I'd get it if I were you because even if you don't wheel hard it will still be better to have something stronger for larger tires and lifts.

    The ride home felt good, much nicer than the Swamper Radial TSLs. They feel like they balanced well and are much quieter than the TSLs. No trimming yet, no rubbing, but I haven't stuffed a tire yet. I'll have to find some place to try. Pinch weld mod has not been done. It's close but not too close.

    I took it up 70 on the way home and everything seemed normal, but quieter. :)

    The old wheels were 4.5" bs (I just measured), and the new Ultras are 4.89, but effectively 3.64 with the 1.25" Spidertrax spacers.

    I thought he wheels would come with black lug nuts (I just assumed :( ) but came with none. The stock nuts would not work, but they were able to get a chrome set that did work. I think it looks alright, but might swap to black down the road - any thoughts?

    Here are few more pics

    In the pics you really do not notice the lugs. Too many other cool things to admire! But I'm Thinking GOLD, Super Neon Green, or Safety Orange lugs would look good,LOL! Also noticed your front plate, COOL!!!!!!!!! fixed/Helo??

    Just my 2cents, Find black lugs......

    The Stance is nice and wide, looks Right! aggressive...

    What the Hell is Cornfed???? I am looking that up now...

    Actually the 3 skids are front, trans, and belly. Belly skid is the tcase skid. Budbuilt identifies them the same way. At least the one under the tcase is the belly skid.

    All of my GTA V cars/trucks are bright purple with dark or pea green wheels! ;)

    Probably gonna find me some black lugs, but I'm in no hurry. Probably do it when I do the OME suspension, and the Cornfed goes away, some time next month! ;)

    I flew P-3s out Jax. Look at my rear plate (and username) to see what and where now! :)

    Thanks!

    That may be true... BUT skidrow identifies them differently then budbuilt. It's front skid, transmission skid, then transfer case skid

    Not that any of us care :anonymous:
