New shoes for Mr. Lariat

One day vacation from widener made it worth the trip home to see Mr. Lariats new shoes that came in.

The crappy Cooper 31x10.5's are soon to be off along with the 92-93 aluminum rims that I don't really care for.



I'm a sucker for steel wagon wheels, but not sure they would look good with all the Lariat trim. So the search for steel rims I like continues. Meanwhile, the living room smells like a rubber fire...

I do too. But if you're bent on replacing them, I'd be interested in the center caps!

Let me know.

Yeah I wouldn't branch out much if it was me. But that's the reason they make more than one kind of wheel, too.

They were 135 buy three get one free. Center caps are going onto the 92 and the 92's are going onto the 88's.

Rims came and were mounted this morning. And ride perfect!

Yesterday put the finishing touches on the interior tire rack.





Look at this monster of a 22 year old P215-75-R15 good year (might have to upgrade this...)

Loaded up for the tire shop...



And today with the new procomps installed. I'm really happy with the look of these new 8x15 smoothies.

I kind of liked the old wheels a little better, but either way that's one bitchin' Bronco! I love that body style.
