Default New wheels and tires!!

Picked up some new tires and wheels the other day! Got 5 of the H1 military take off 37's for $500, still have about 80-85% tread left on them. Got the wheels from my Moms neighbor I grew up next to for $20! Will post some pics of them on the truck after I get them mounted and on the truck. Probably gonna finish burnin up the 315's and put the H1's on right before the Memorial Weekend camping trip. Hmmmmm, to leave the wheels alone or paint/powder coat them flat black..........

Black than polish the rivets or nuts whichever they are back out.

Nice score! It's a win/win whatever you do with the wheels, I've seen that style of wheel both ways and it looked good as is and blacked out. Polishing the rivets would look pretty sweet if you blacked them out.

My co-worker has those same tires on his ex-military Ford Bronco...those are some very aggressive tires, big and meaty...he says they work great in the sand as well...you will like them very much

Yeah, I'm thinkin blacking them out will be the way to go, I really like the way my black 16's look on the truck. The polished rivets would look cool, but sounds like a lot of work!! I got these ones off the local Craigslist. There is a tire shop here in Spokane that gets them in and sells them, but they wanted $600 for four of them. There is also a guy from Texas that sells them for a decent price on ebay, has a website too, but I didn't want to deal with shipping. Dieselcrawler, you got a really good deal on those!!! I wanted the radials though since it is my DD. I heard that the 36's don't do that good in snow and ice.
