    When you go to paint them check out this paint at Lowes. I've had really good luck with it so far and it's very durable. Scuff the wheels, clean them, and spray them. you can use etching primer first if you'd like it can't hurt just dust on 1 coat and top coat. IDk why everybody on here sprays multiple coats of etching primer

    We could, but not at my house. I only have enough flat driveway for one truck to have it's wheels off! Plus it's not THAT flat, so I'll likely do it in two chunks of two wheels at a time.

    Im off today and tomorrow. But ive been not motivated. I need to redo the mount for my ARB compressor, to lower it down 4 inches, and eliminate the hose that blew. Its so hot today though. Ill wait until its cooler.

    I have a home made mount. Just a bent piece of metal. I had a rubber hose going to the place behind the headlight, for my inflate quick connect, and a Tee fitting going to the rear for another quick connect.

    The new mount I will make, eliminates the rubber hose

    I may be down. I just don't like driving more than I need to because my commute for work is long enough as it is :rofl:

    Yes. Also because it was resting on the compressor, which gets insanely hot. Ill get a picture soon. I was just taking an afternoon nap.

    Also, if my new bracket works out, I can probably give you a braided hose. I have one

    Dang! At least you tried. I recently bought a camp stove on Amazon for $6 when it's normally $30. Pretty positive it's a scam too, but we'll see.

    a few other guys gave it a try too, but they gave up sooner than me. I might wait until the due date before backing off... just to see... lol as I said in the post it happened to me twice to get something at very low price, like 90%off lol and got them in the mail... I stay positive lol!
