[MrSmithsTB]

Hey, buddy. Glad to see you found the light! Got tired of being too slow and obsessing over scratches and other imperfections. If you need help getting that lift on once you find a garage, let me know. I'll try to make it.

Funny thing .... I NEVER hear of a lifted truck converting to being lowered. Wonder why that is.....

Must be that getting smart only flows one way.

Welcome! Even when you're a newb, just don't be a noob, OK?

Also... this ain't like the OS... we do require capitalization here.

(You make a capital letter by pressing the SHIFT button at the same time as a letter... incase you were unaware.)

Glad you found the light bud.

[janesy86]

Welcome.. You will enjoy it much better than being lower, that I can promise.

[irishboy02]

Yeaa im excited...but one issue. As of right now, im still 7" from the ground

[janesy86]

What ya thinkin' for tires/wheels since you got the 20"er's now?

[irishboy02]

puttin these stockers back on for now



they still have a good amount of tread...but im lookin for some meat...prob mudders cause we have a good amount of mud/sand here but more so wat money will buy

[janesy86]

Nice... 16" or 17"? I'm sure you are aware of the seller that Gordinho and Dizzlenator got their tires from right? Good deal for BFG MT's for 17" wheels.

[irishboy02]

Yupp, i have the 17x7 rim, whats up with chevy and all the weird/off sizes for our truck

Yeaa actually im friends with all of them, theyre actually my inspiration along with foosh and mrsmithtb

My issues right now are the spacers, well more so the cost of them. I would love to get a nice 33" on there but dnt have the money right now. Its looking very solid right now that ill be getting foosh's old tires on the envoy rims, since hes now got the 33s on 16s and i wont need any spacers/adaptors...only time will tell

I greatly appreciate your input here!

[Gordinho80]

The prices on those tires seems to keep going up. When I got my set of 4 in March, I got them at $75 a tire plus a drive to Philly... When I got my 5th from the deal that Dan got for the set, I paid $115 for the 1. Looking at ebay now, $135 and up...

[irishboy02]

Yeaa, im startin a new, very well paid job in 2 weeks so i should be able to get a few funds to make my baby ready for winter wheelin...hope its a good winter

Yea I assummed you were friends with them and already know about the whole process. And can't complain about the tires/wheels foosh had on his... as for spacers I got mine from the eBay vendor 'wheeladapters'. Maybe not as high quality as Fred's but so far so good with mine (3 months now). And they only cost $150 for the set shipped.

[Gordinho80]

Wow man that was kinda harsh...

That's him taking it easy on him...

We protect our own here... right mario?

James, so whens the next tecore so we can get brendan out of the mud and onto some different terrain?

[MrSmithsTB]

I think he can hold his own. Won't run off to cry in any corners if James or Bill open up....

But don't worry fellas, he'll be alright. He even helped out when we installed my lift.

irishboy02,

Good to see you here. So many more possibilities when you're lifted and not afraid of scratches. JamesD and roadie will look out for you, trust their judgment but questioning there point of view only makes them better.
