A good deal only if there is a market for them. I would be afraid to risk it, myself.

Those are too blingy for your truck. Just use them until you need a real wheel fix.

True, but I'm sure I can sell them for at least $800-$900. The reason that I can get them for $600 is that the guy owes me a favor. If I get Stealths rims, It will be a while before I can get tires. It's a chance I have to take. Life is no fun without taking chances. I'll still have the money to get the other rims.

I misunderstood the other day I guess, but I thought you said you had already bought the tires. If you like those wheels Randall, taht is great, but if it were my truck, I would not be able to get them off fast enough. I would rather run your stockers. I know you did not ask my opinion, but had to give it!

I did buy the tires already buy the wrong size for my taste. They are 265/40R22's I think. I like to have a little wider tire.

Yep, those would be too small for me. I like them as wide as possible with some sidewall.

Well, it helps to have experience with talking to Cajuns. But, Dave is from the frozen North and he talks about the same. Guess he is a mislocated Cajun.

Southern Michigan, - Iron Mountain, man that's further North for sure, past Copper Harbor I believe. I'm about a stones throw away Canada. When you think of it that way, iduno, sounds colder... lol

Nice country, - Iron Mountain.

Not quite as far as Copper Harbor that is about a 4 hour ride North from where we are. Yeah when you put it that way it does sound colder.
