Orange County CAF's: up to no good

How the he'll have you been brotha long time no hear

 

Are you sure? Looks like they could be a trd sport 5 spoke wheel with the new tires mounted that @goblue82 got yesterday

 

I've been well just busy. Lots of work and not enough camping or wheeling haha

 

Haha I feel you there bro finally been able to make it out to the Dez once this year and will be heading out for thanksgiving as well thank God and I get to bring my little guy so that's cool

 

yep. Still stock wheels

 

Ok, panic mode. Does anyone have a 17" factory wheel. Steel, aluminum, ugly af, whatever. I've been to 4 tire shops and a 17 is super hard to find.I need need need a spare. It will be irresponsible of me to go to death valley for a week with no spare. I'm leaving Monday.

 

@MotoEd mentioned earlier in wheelers or this thread that he had some sport rims.

 

Tha,is, brotha. Hardest thing is finding a private seller that will just sell one wheel. The hunt continues.

 

An advantage to aftermarket: you damage just one and can easily get just one replacement ordered.
Do you have a 4 wheel parts or ORW around you? Maybe they have a set on hand? Steelies possibly?

 

4 wheel parts is crap. But ill check them out. I can order a wheel just the same as aftermarket but time is the issue here. Size is the issue. That's what she said. Then she found me. Lol

Try searching Craigslist

Yeah, I only said those two because they might have something in stock since you're in a bit of a pinch

Thanks brothers @downhillbik3r and @eccracer104 for searching CL for me. After 7 shops I got a lead on a spot local that can fix me wheel. Gonna check them out

 

How desperate am i to have it is the question

 

How much?

 

It's higher then the ones you seen on avg in craigslist at like $350. Though I'd have to pay for shipping. There's one or two nearby on cl but ones sold and other doesn't fit the bed

 

Wheel is fixed. Gonna use it as a spare. Structual integrity is lost after the heat was applied. 5 pack of steelies after DV. 8 shops is all it took. Benefit of big bear in my backyard... A beautiful foothills sunset.

 

Thanks muh brotha.
