Re: Project: Daily Driver
Thanks! just checked out your build thread...Frame is lookin NIIIICCCCEEE!!!! did you have it blasted then powdercoated? I like the KMC Diesels as well they are a very nice wheel let me know how you like those Nittos if they are too noisy or not... I'm running the Toyos now and was thinking of goin with the Nittos because they have alot more of an aggressive tread pattern.

I had the frame sandblasted and was going to powdercoat it but decided against it because of some pitting and poor welding by the previous owner. Used Kirker's carbon metallic single stage covered by 2 coats of Nason clear. It was almost a direct match for the remaining chassis parts I had powdercoated with Subway Black. Yes I'm afraid the Nittos may be very loud but the deal I got was too good to pass on. I would have gone with the Toyos if this deal hadn't come along. Your Cheyenne 8s + Toyos is a combination tough to beat. My dream combination was Toyos + Dune 6s but I couldn't find any for sale at a reasonable price. Very disappointing Weld stopping making those wheels. |

Re: Project: Daily Driver
I like your tire/wheel combo, it goes well with the truck. I personally would have done the 20's, but everybody entitled to their own opinion.
