Really good looking wheels. Don't run 'em in the winter.

Awesome, that`ll really perk up your ride Dusty!
Home balancing is easy too.... a run thru some real deep and sticky mud, there ya go, it`s balanced good enough!

I'm not going to really go hard with the truck anyway, so as long as the tires get me where I need/want to be I'm happy. And when I go mall crawling, lol Two years max maybe, and it may be going up on sale. I have to decide once and for all if I'm going to do a Cummins conversion on it, 6.9/7.3 IDI or just sell it completely and go newer. I'm in Winnipeg, but I'll check the board anyway, you can't be on enough boards!! Thanks for the compliments.

You cant go wrong with throwing a 5.9 cummins in there, after ya do that it would be really affordable to drive, and watch the value of the truck shoot up!
