pics of my new hummer wheels installed
Found a good deal on some hummer h2 wheels and tires, new take offs. They are 315/70 x17. About the same as a 35x12.50. They fit great and dont rub anywhere with the 4in lift. Attached are before and after pictures

Looks good. I really like the 17" rim look it really updates the look of your truck.

Wow! That does look nice and clean... The wheels actually have kind of a classic look to them now that I see them on your truck.

Hummer Wheels
I've seen those on our trucks before, they look great on them.
 What'd ya hafta give for 'em?  They look better than your old one's, nice choice. Are the hub caps for sale by chance? |

Agressive!
 What's with the hood-up pics? I thought that's how Fix-Or-Repair-Daily truck pics naturally turn out.

The questions: The old ones were michelin military 11.00x16. They were great tires but 38 inches is to tall for what I need, I wanted to go a little smaller. The new wheels and tires were $700, zero mile take offs, the nipples weren't even worn on the tread surface. No the hubcaps aren't for sale, I just recently found a decent set and had planned on using them but there are no tires as tall as I wanted that will fit the stock width rim. I am still working on the center caps, the hummer caps obviously wont fit on the front but I had thought they would fit on the rear, nope they wont clear the 14ff hub either. I have ordered some silver caps off a late model dually ($8.99 for four on ebay) and have seen pictures of similar caps on hummer wheels. If they are close in diameter, they will work because they are held on by the lugnuts. If they dont fit, I'll just use chrome nuts and paint the hub to match the silver paint on the hummer wheels.

The Hummer wheels look good w/hubs exposed.Paint hubs black.Those wheels never appealed to me on a Hummer.Takes a nice lookin`72 to set them off.I can only imagine the wheel that replaced those on the Hummer.Prolly dem whirly-giggy thangs.
