expy console...winter wheels pictures

I put my expedition console in, fixed my stupid visor wiring harness, cleaned my truck up, and I've got the new 265 Nitto Terra Grapplers on the stock 17s for winter......I'll miss the 305s but I can't ruin those wheels with the road salt. As for the console, it was simple to install and I love it. Only thing I don't like is the gap on the bottom. I also used spray on bedliner and taped off and sprayed where you drag your feet getting in and out on the rocker, however I didn't do the whole thing.....My friend and I figured it'd be fine to just do around the trim piece...I don't like it, I'm going to finish it when I get more time.

























Here's the summer look with the 305's






what do you guys think?


edit-

No the carpet isn't stained....its spotless, those spots where it looks stained its just wet from my feet. The mudflap is dirty..this was before I armor all'd them. stupid me, I should of done that BEFORE The pictures...haha

Looks good!! I'm thinking about adding the expy console to my 02 screw.Your seats look like they are in the same condition as mine LOL!!I like the summer look better-however I think you should mount those bfg's on the stock wheels for winter!! BTW I have the same BFG's but in a 285/75/16

I almost did, but I'm hard on winter tires, when they start spining and there is pavement ahead, I hammer down....I usually loose 40% tread life in the winter hahahah....Another reason is the way they'd wear on the 17x7.5 and then once they were switched over...they'd look weird all worn on the center and not the edges haha. I do love the BFGs though. I wish I could of afforded 1000 dollar set of 285s :-( My seats aren't really that bad, the pictures make those little wear spots look worse then they really are, no rips...haha now my friend has the same truck and one of his springs blew through the bottom!

I like the look. Its come a good way. Sucks have to get ready for snow. I love console look. The consoles seem to sit a little high in front.Very similar in my 02.

I like the console, makes me miss my old truck. I had a navi center console I painted black that looked real sick. Sold it when the truck was totaled though.

Yeah, only it's got a fake wood trim around that front little cubby hole. Painted black + that wood trim, the console looked very clean and 'luxury' hah.
