Who has the 23'' Saleen wheels on there truck?
Man oh man, I was debating on getting these rims before now but they just weren't sitting pretty with me...until I saw the black powder coat jobs, and now I'm debating on whether to save up or blow my next paycheck on them, lol...
Besides the continentals listed earlier, what tires are everyone going with? Goodyear, BFG? I've had great results with both those brands but I'm weary of dropping a ton of money (especially on 23's which won't be cheap) on a set of rubber just to be pissed at the results. Any balancing issues, or have to balance them more often than stock?

check into discounttire.com......I just bought a saleen and I checked tire prices before I bought it...the nitto 555's like I run on my lightning were 240 each when I checked. Just another option to throw atcha....
Get a 12" long piece of 3" PVC pipe. Glue a cap on one end. Put your TPMS sensors in the pipe and stuff with poly fill. Drill a hole in the pipe and put in a valve stem. Glue a cap on the other end of the pipe. Air up the pipe to the correct pressure and put it under or behind your seat and thats it. Works great.
Here is one I did for a friend of mine.

I doubt there is....if you hung that wheel under the truck in the carrier it would just get ruined anyway from road crap getting thrown up on it. Your full size spare will get you where your going and it'll save you atleast 5oo bucks on a wheel/tire combo that you hope you never even have to see.
heres a link to what discounttire.com has right now for saleen wheels, they are out of nitto's right now but that's a HELL of a deal on the khumo's. if those are decent tires.
