Re: Cubber's Build Thread

Rus, I laughed last night, thinking that you probably knew. It was fun, though to look and decide with no other motivation than to find what I liked best! The advice you gave was right on the money!

Re: Cubber's Build Thread

I ain't afraid to jump on out and buy some tires! 235/55/17, just like the green truck. 2 inches shorter than my old ones, and slightly (little over 1/2") more narrow. $368 from ebay, $45 to have them mounted with new stems on my new wheel, and balanced with sticky weights! Saved $75 by buying online!

Re: Cubber's Build Thread

Me, too. I ordered the silver wheels, but some day I might change the color. I also found some 17" trim rings, and I'm kinda curious what they would look like on there.

Re: Cubber's Build Thread

yes, Bryan. Also, ended up going with the black wheels ( apparently the silvers are special order, and were 3-4 weeks out, which isn't what the website said when I ordered them). I think they will look cool when the truck is all black, and will actually work better with my future plans for the truck. I don't know why I didn't order them to start with, but I'm on the right track now. The wheels should be here Friday!

My wheels are steelies, they look like my old silver ones, but 17", and black. They were like $90 a wheel, and I have some center caps to run. If you want ones that look just like factory steels, Wheel Vintiques makes em for about $200 a wheel.
