    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    What do you mean by "Dude paragraphs you were asked once by a mod." I do not understand. Who is "Dude paragraphs?" I assume you mean me since I started this thread.

    Would you please show me how to write properly. I thought I understood, but apparently I do not. This is not sarcasm, I am actually asking for help so no one else will complain about me trying to participate on this forum. Just so you know I am doing the best I can, and I am not trying to break...

    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    I just called the local tire place and they said they can get them for me for 170 something a tire, which if I do not have to pay for shipping I guess is not too bad. That may be the cheapest route I think.

    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    That would be kinda a far drive for me, I appreciate it though. Maybe it would be easier just to pay a higher price and then not have to drive all the way out there and not have to have you haul them to your parents or anything...idk... Do you think your friend could ship them? Maybe it...

    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    Orange city is about a 30 minute drive to Daytona so sort of close. I would like to get them soon but as far as "extra money" that i have saved specifically for tires I've only got like $300 something right now. I do have the actual money but unless I get a really good deal on them I do not...

    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    Cheapest I have found them was like $178 online but then you gotta add like 20 something shipping per tire. $155 is really cheap. If you do not mind taking more pictures I would like to see one straight on from the front to see how skinny the tires really look, just curious. Thanks for the...

    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    On another note, I believe it was 4 wheel offroad that did a build on a cucv pickup with 15 inch wheels that only had like 1/2 inch backspacing and it seems to work alright for them, although that does seem a little extreme but somehow it allowed them to clear the brakes with 15 inch rims which...

    Alright, pictures of those exact tires would help a lot seeing as that is what I am leaning towards getting. If you (chesapeake)can get those pictures i would greatly appreciate that.

    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    Thanks for the replies. I know articulation is a big factor, I just wanted to keep cost down by not doing a lift, the truck sits pretty high stock as it is. Also if I do lift it I wouldn't be able to lift much because most of the local trails are very tight and in alot of situations the...

    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    One problem I'm having is finding a tall skinny tire. The only thing I found I might be able to order is a 9.00-16 ( I think Sigma) Power King Premium Traction tire but I'm not sure yet if the local dealer can get them or not.

    Alright thanks, maybe I will have to stick with something smaller than a 37 then if i don't want to buy new springs or anything then.

    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    Ok, any advice on the wheel to use such as what backspacing. Is the stock backspacing ideal and if so what is the stock wheel specs. I think they're 16 tall by 6.5 wide do not know the back spacing for sure though. If I was to change to a stock 16.5 from a different truck to have different tire...

    Sorry, I'm not trying to be sarcastic. I appreciate any input so far. I have tryed to click on the links at the bottom already. I have not seen any posts about what I am describing so far. I do not post on forums very often because I do not usually get a response or not a very friendly response...

    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    Good to see all the support on this so far. Does anyone have any ideas on how to add speakers and subwoofer and radio in a m1028? With there being little space to work with I am kind of stumped on what to do to make a subwoofer fit somewhere. I already have some so i figure i should try to get...

    Also if anyone has pictures of doing this and pictures of their trim job with the big tires that would be helpful as well.

    1984 m1028 fender trimming and tires?

    Alright, sorry about not capitalizing and posting in the wrong place. I thought it would be fine where I posted it but my mistake. Any other suggestions for fitting 35s AND larger with no lift and some fender trimming or modifications are still appreciated.
