How gay is this?

[BobM]

I got some cheap wheels and tires from a guy who needed quick cash. I decided to try them on the 1008. I'm not gonna keep it lilly green original anyway. I just wanna have fun!

All you need now is a 4' lift and some firestone mil.oz Hummer tires.

Cough...Goodyear...cough...





I got my wheels for $100...2007 GMC take offs. The tires weren't so cheap...

 

[BobM]

I'm feeling better already!

PAINT THEM BLACK!!!!!!!!!

 

[AJMBLAZER]

I actually have these in the shed waiting to be blasted and painted black.

 

[OPCOM]

ditto. that would de-gay them. Also turn the tires around blackwall. displaying raised white letters are a closet case..

AJM, I'm slowly starting to hate you!!!! I really wanted some of the 2500 HD rims, but I'm glad I went with an 8" wide in the end, but those look awesome and are really light weight!


BobM, those rims are so gay.....you should take them off your truck and ship them to me to avoid any further gayness comments about your truck

I actually think they look awesome! What are they? American Racing Outlaw IIs?

Not sure. They are American Racing, but not sure after that. The tires are almost new and they drove nice. Now if I could just get a 700R4......

GAY??? Don't ask, don't tell.

 

[spentshell]

Yes gay, it kinda gives me the feeling like I have brand new white sneakers and I have to get them dirty.

Whell, if your not going to keep it original, then why not.

Looks like you need a lift real bad.

You'll hate me even more when you find out I paid $60 for them at a swap meet. However they have some Northern Michigan winter corrosion issues with the clearcoat and surface. If they had been pristine I'd have been running them already. Now it's just money and time...

Yep, those are Outlaw II's. Outlaw's look the same except have no holes and Baja's have larger holes.

Whell, if your not going to keep it original, then why not.

EXACTLY!

Nope, I cut and trimmed enough to make them fit with the 1" of front lift I have now. Don't rub anywhere even if I flex the wee out of it. If I'm turning hard and I bounce a bit they will brush the inner fender but literally only brush it. Moving the axle forwards an inch or so would solve the problem though. Winter project I think.

Lifts are expensive and would prevent this:

That looks like my old 'burban. We put it in the garage and put new shocks on the rear. Then we had to hang two of us big guys on the rear bumper to get it back OUT of the garage!
Now I have a taller garage!

I don't drive this in the winter so it sits in the garage warm and safe from the road salt. Would a 4" Tuff Country HD lift be sweet and make it flex better? Sure. Would it sit in the snow all winter? Yep.
