Damned nice rims i might add, but the polished ones are like 530$ EACH. Toooo rich for my broke *** but going fast butt!

CLiff, speed bump behind tates creek center.

Yeah i relieze i can realign the bed, but seems like it shoulda got done right the first time =).. And even still when i took it in for the bed squeak, it shoulda got fixed.

I'll keep ya in tune to what they tell me, being I noted it on the work order(assuming they keep them) They would hopefully have to fix it.

Anyways, just figured id throw that out at ya guys, beware, and be sure to check it!

Brandon

That probably why its sliding because they never tightened the bolts back up after you brought the truck in the first time from the dealer. Same here i believe it should be done right the first time but no one is gonna care about something that isnt there's so thats why i say if you can do it yourself without taking it to the dealer do it.

P.S. Glad you like the rims they were well worth the wait. I also just did the expy console mod thursday and will post pics soon.

Thumbs up

The rims i called Boyd direct for and he said he would give them to me for 500 a piece so thats 2000 for the rims alone not including shipping. The Tires i called a local tire place and he said 1000 for the tires. So after i got those prices i called my rim guy who i usually go to and he said everything for $3180 thats rims. tires, mounted and balanced. So i went with him best deal plus i wouldnt have to worry about rims and tires sitting outside my house where they could get stolen. Whenever you order rims from boyd they are made from scratch iwas told 3 weeks for my rims but i didnt get them until 13 weeks after i ordered them. The reason mine took so long was because the first time they made them they came out messed up something with the 10 inch wide part. But i got them last saturday and as you can tell from the pics well worth the wait.

My '98 did the same thing after driving through a small ditch. The dent it left was very bad, and I wondered how the cab and bed design would work on 4X4's.
