I might be able to hook that up! So you wanna hang out with sandy westgate for an hour?? BTW she is living in the LA area now and not down the street from me!! :D

And stop fawking with the teen inch rims! Nut up and get the 22's!! They make a bigger tire for the 22's that measures almost 34"s tall!! There is an excursion rolling around up this way on rims#3 in the 22" size it looks sick! Anything less then a 20 is so old skool! Shiat camo my tow rig is rolling dubz you gotta out due that!! After all the glitter factory makes you more money than I due so nut up and get the PHAT Rims!! If I made your $ I would be bling bling on some new 24's!! :D

Rim 3!
1 & 2 look like they belong on a lowrider with a chrome chain steering wheel, fuzzy dice and those :rainbow: dingleballs around the windows!:D
Kinda like what the "bruthas" do to Burbans 'round here.:rolleyes:

RE:Todd
04-01-2002, 06:21 PM
#1 looks too much like Cragers, #3 looks too much like cookie cutters, gotta go with #2. Besides, Camo has to buy 10 of them, 5 for the trailer, 5 for the SD :D:D:D:D:D.

#2. Riminds me of the Halibrand Gasser fronts. Spindle mounts.

#3 doesn't look too bad other than the ridges. Be a MF to keep polished.

Since you are getting a set for the tow rig, and a set for the trailer, why don't you have Boyd whip up a set of Locked ones for the trail rig? :D

Saw in the new Goodguys Gazette that Boyd is building an ALL ALUMINUM Rod Pickup. Bankrupcy must pay off.:rolleyes:

Only pimps sport chrome, or polished metal. Just put some black beadlocked rims on and call it good.
That is................ unless your a pimp, I would go with #1.....:skull:

You must be new. :rolleyes: We are talking about the Glitter Pimp.



EDIT: Since I assume that all three wheels have the same weight carying rating, I'd go with 3.

Well I don't like any of them. What's that symbol, oh yea.... :rainbow:

Where did you find the girl, Bimbo's R Us?

Come to Nevada, get some drinks, go to the house down the street and they all look that good but at least you'll get something for your money.

Then the next day when your all hung over go to Les Schwab buy some cheap wagon wheels cause that's all you can afford and be a happier man.

#3 looks the least gay, so go with that. But even if your only a little gay, your still gay, right?

Oh did I mention I dont like the rims? (Ok Im really just jealous because I could never afford them and it pisses me off that other people can. I spent less than that on my entire rock crawler project Im building!!) SEND MONEY!!:p

Hey Welby, can you do some "matte black" magic on the bling bling shiat?!

Bring IT! :beer:

There is a guy with a f250 by where I am working he has a set of #2 on is truck with I would say 35 and man for a pretty wheel that motha looks nice! I could not justify spending that for a wheel around here because of all the salt unless I would change them like I do my wifes wheels! Get the fawkin wheels and tell the jealous bastars :flipoff2: and enjoy the little lowriders checking out the rig!
later

they look too "JU" for me :rainbow: :rainbow:

















I forgot, you like :rainbow:

even if I had all your money, I still wouldnt be caught dead with those wheels on my rig. I would get a set of stock aluminum wheels, they look great.

I voted for #3, but I wouldn't get them in 18" size. I'd get 16X8's. Two problems I see with the 18" size. 1, 35" is too tall for a rig that's going to be yanking a 45' Toybox around. 2, what are you going to do when you get out in the middle of nowhere & blow a tire, and nobody has one in stock? You can squeeze a 305/70R16 on that rig with minimal fuss & no LIFT. Or, compromise & get the 17's. But, the 18's just seem impractical w/o really LOOKING that much different than 16's or 17's IMO.

2nd vote is for #1

I agree with TEX. When I had my 96 Impala SS on 20's we took a vacation. I got a nail in one of my $500+ P-Zero tires. I could not even find a tire shop within 100 miles that could dismount anything larger that 16.5!! Had to plug it and then add fix a flat. :(

guess i'll have to get an extra one for a spare :flipoff2:


tex why do you think 35" are to large to tow a 45' trailer with? i have two diffrent frieds that do it now. seems to work just fine. one of the reasons i like the 18" is because the tire has less sidewall and will not flex as much. so it should be fairly stable.

imuzme. who makes a 20" mud terrain tire?

benny. good call pretty JU but guess what ..............yup thats right :flipoff2:

welby it is a f350 crew cab long bed ...black. i don't have any pics but i bet ya can find one on the web

'Cause you'll have to do at least a leveling kit where you can do the 33's with no lift at all. I've got several friends using lifted SD's on 35-36" rubber (some leveling kits, 1 4" lift, & 1 6" lift - that one looks :rainbow: ), but none towing anything quite that BIG. But, I've got another friend towing a 36' trailer behind an unlifted Dodge SRW. Even unlifted, he says it's not as stable as he'd like with no duals. I would think adding 9' of length to the trailer & lifting the tow rig would exaggerate the situation.

He he some of u guys crack me up. I got my trail rig on 40"s tires. So whenever I buy my new tow rig/DD I will keep the stockers for towing and going to my cabin in the winter. But 23"s at least for me on the road. I personally like the looks of blinging trucks/cars. Kinda takes it to both extremes: cool beat up trail rig getting towed by a smooth ride. Whether it be an Escalade, Denali, Excursion, Yukon, Superduty, whatever I get Im puttin that Beeeaach on DUBS!:D

tex one trip to clamis and you will see crazy shiat like a motorhome on 44" towing a 30 tag trailer.

superdutys with 8" lift and 38 swampers towing huge trailers. all kinds of crazy junk.

4" lift ( front is 4 and the back gets lifted 1.5 to level it ) on 35 radials is pretty mild

good call on the spare though. i will get a spare 35 x 16 and have it put on my stock spare rim.

Last time I saw my buddy's 36' trailer on the road, it was being towed by a '97 or older F250 on 38's :)



4" lift ( front is 4 and the back gets lifted 1.5 to level it ) on 35 radials is pretty mild

I'll have to ask the guys who did the leveling if they did this, or if they only went up 2" on the front & none in rear. One's on 315/75's on the stock rims, the other on 305/85's, also on stock rims. Could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure neither lifted the rear at all & they clear.

good call on the spare though. i will get a spare 35 x 16 and have it put on my stock spare rim.

Yeah, tire will be cheaper that way anyway :)
