Another set of Platinum Wheels Mounted Up...

So, I got my wheels from the FedEx man today and headed to my tire shop for the rubber. Very happy with the results. The Michelin's and 18" rims go to their new home by way of craigslist on Thursday. The new tires are Goodyear A/T Adventures. No check engine light so I guess no trip to the dealer to tell the computer to accept the 20's. Speedo is more accurate now too. Anyways...

Thanks! I'm a fan. For some reason I prefer something that comes stock on a vehicle (from a different model etc.) to aftermarket.

Lookin good, Rodney!

I have to agree with you on using OEM wheels to upgrade, it's rarely a bad choice
