Who's truck is this? Is it really a 4x4? If so, how did you get those wheels to fit? I was told the 4x4 hubs don't fit those wheels. Was I lied to?

Don't know whose truck that is, but I gotta ask....are those the Borla carbon fiber exhaust tips? Not bad!

If anyone else out there has these, do they affect the sound any? In other words, they don't sound like that popping sound from those crappy little cars with the oversized exhaust do they???

Cool wheels too.

oh, and sorry for stepping on your thread, lariat4wd!

 

I am going to take a jab at this...YOU WERE LIED TOO....Why do I think this....The 4x4 wheels also came on the sports (17s) and the stock standard 16s are the same and they are on the 4x4 and 4x2..I dont think the 4x4 hub has anything to do with the rims anymore....Dave

 

So, I could buy Lightning wheels for my 4x4? What size tires can I get in 18s?

Our 4x4's don't have locking hubs, I don't see why they won't fit, I think you were lied to also. As far as tire size I don't know what size you could fit.

That's what I'm wondering too....they come on the Chevys, but they are smaller. That one looks good.

 

hey, well as far as the wing goes, i know i've seen it in a magazine, but i can't seem to find it right now, so guess i'm not much help. if i run across it, i will post which magazine/company.

Hey, be nice. I was just curious if I should trust this certain source that told me I couldn't fit those wheels on my truck. If he lied, then I need to second guess other info from him.

 

Putting this back on top.

I found the tailgate spoiler @ Lund.
Can't find any decent 18" Off-Road tires though. Oh well. Nice truck though, who ever you are!!!
