Let The Games Begin

I talked more with Leon at 4wheelparts about the ProComp Strykers in 20x10 with 4.5 B/S... He thinks I will need the wheel spacers and everyone says I won't. I told him if I need them, I will just get them later, so to make sure I am happy with the sale... He threw them in for FREE !! So, I am getting 4 wheels with lugnuts and spacers to my door for $576... I think that's awesome !!! I think he's the same guy Schmidtty dealt with, his name is Leon at ext. 5110.. He looked out for me, just wanted to let everyone know.

Thanks everyone for helping me in my journey, I think the fun is just beginning !!

Those are sweet wheels! You've probably already been through this, but you do know they're going to stick out 3.5" past stock, right?

time to play

I don't mind it sticking out as long as the man doesn't give me too much of a hard time ! Besides, it's going to give me a step to get up and wash her after I get it dirty

Meats

and as far as tires go, I can't make up my mind yet. I like the KM2's, ATZ's, ProComp XAT's and for the price the Irok's but I am worried about tread life a bit !

Sweet purchase! Good to see others following in my tire tracks!

I would go with the MT Baja ATZ's if you want an aggressive tire that is still quiet and "should" give a good tread life...

Congrats on the Stryker's, you will not be dissapointed.

I would do the ATZ's but then I would be the mirror image of your truck. My wife said to get what I wanted and I KNOW this is a one time offer ! I'm gonna do what I can the first time around because it might be a while before she gives in again. I just sold my Suzuki Samurai toy that I dumped about 8k into and that was supposed to help fund this project. I ended up using the $ for the move back up here from Louisiana. My turn now !!

How much will the 4.5" backspacing make them stick out?
