I Eat. They are the Eagle alloys. Series 186. Fairly inexpensive wheel. They are a 17x9 wheel. They have been around for awhile. But they still have a good look to them.

TL I was curious how you got a procomp 8in. IS your truck gas or diesel. I could only get a 6in for my diesel. I am trying to figure out if I can get 37" on mine. I have read a few places some say yes and oythers say no it will rub. I know 36" will fit. Any suggestions on that?

I went to a place here in Tempe, AZ. BDM Customs (Brian David Matthews) They take Existing kits and will customize it for your application. I had the Fabtech 6in on my 2000 EX PSD. I ran 35. 12.50 17 BFG AT. and they rubbed on some big bumps . But they would rub when I would turn sharp (left or right) IM not sure if that was because of not having the correct offset on the wheels. IM running
37 13.50 17 Procomp Extreme AT now and no rubbing at all. But I do have +3 offset on my wheels, that may be the difference now. Are you saying that you can not get an 8in procomp lift for your EX? Let me know I live in a big 4x4 area
and there are 20-30 shops within 45min of me. I can get you ph# or websites

I had a hard time where to place the V10 emblems. I didnt want it like the SD. But now I've been thinking it may have looked better if I put them like the SD. Thanks for your input. Yea I have got 7 EX's on my street, and my EX makes them look on the smaller side thats for sure. I do have 2 SD on my street that make my EX look small. Around here we call our EX's, BMW's (Big Mormon Wagons) Around here alot of us drive EX's or Burbs, to haul the familys around.

procomp
TL I called up Procomp and now they tell me I can switch out the leafs. If I put in the 6in leafs it will give me the 8 inches. When I got my system I got the 4in leafs. I just feel that 35's just do not look right on the truck and 37 will rub on turns. Need to go the extra 2 inch lift. I was alos curious what kind of shocks are you using. I am using the MX6 and are very happy with them.

NJ. IM using the shocks one step below the MX6. I have the 9000. The MX6 is a good shock. The 37 will fit with the 6in plus Procomp lift. It will not rub on front bumper. But I think you need some kind of wheel offset so they will not rub on the springs when you turn. I had that problem on my 2000 EX PSD. the tires rubbed on the springs when I turned. If your getting new wheels also ask the guys there about wheel offset. IM running a 1 inch wider tire than I did on my 2000 EX (12.50) now running (13.50) with no rubbing anywhere. What tires are you looking to get?
