Nothing feels like 4 new wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

retodd7711 · 04-03-2009, 07:18 PM

Well, new to me

I picked these up from a board member (thanks-Geoff!)
Sure beats the raggedy, flat spotted snow tires on unbalanced split rims.
I had the Hankooks for the front, Bought the Dayton's (rear) today.
Can you dig it?

I like the sepia toned pics.
Just looks good on our trucks.

retodd7711 · 04-03-2009, 07:27 PM

Couple more.
That's pretzel my trucker buddy.
Over a million miles on the old girl and still raring to go.
Chances are she's been in your town over the last 8 years

They look real good on the truck. Glad you retired the split rims.

Nice wheels and nice truck too. I really like the dark green color. A.R.E is known as American Racing...I think.
