Sounds sweet!

 

The Venom's dont look bad, but I think of them more as a sport look than an offroad look. With your tbars cranked, that beefy bumper and M/Ts, I dont know how well they will fit in. However if you like them, go for it.

 

Im hoping since it has the deep dish look it adds to the offroad effect but with a little style at same time. I have made it my wallpaper on my phone to stare at them to make sure before I buy, no rush I want to get exactly what I want. This truck has been my baby & will be for a long time!

 

I like the look but same problem they are bright as hell but straight in front of you ehh. Riding around town at night & street lights you cant tell they are on, im adding more lights to the front when I add the custom homemade bars I want to the bumper. But the halo projectors sure are pretty. Do you have the small led's on with your normal driving lights? Mine are connected to blinkers, I didnt know if could hook them up to the running lights.

 

Alright im liking my options im going to check out those BFG's & Open Country's & Baja's! I just cant see paying $300 a tire right now thought, thanks for the options I will check them out. I have found the rims im pretty dure I want the KMC Venom 17's, im doing a 17 cause the 18 & 20 tires are so much pricier

 

Welcome to the site Rachel...Just a heads up, I went through 3 sets of KMC Badlands in about 2 years, the chrome process that KMC is using stinks(IMO), probably becuase they are made in china.


Since you have the black projectors for headlights, I would definitely tint the taillights.


Btw, I responded to your question about my hood

 

Two threads merged, one thread per subject, please.

 

yea mine come on when i turn on my running lights and low/high beams. I love the look but they sometimes just dont cut it. Im out on the country streets all the time and the section that gets no light is most of the road. i did find a light upgrade for them but i havent ordered it yet.

 

$1399.00 (Tires: Falken Ziex ST/z04 285/60/18 $556, Rims $843) Includes shipping, Mounting, Balancing, Install Kit

Just found out im going to be doing quality control & driving the southeast more I cant justify a M/T anymore. Bill Thompson (local Tire shop) is over $150 more on these same tires, what do yall think about Falken? My offroading now a days is with my 4wheeler anyway, daily driver too expensive to fix. I made bad purchase last time on tires & all opinions are welcomed. Thanks Friends!.

Their ratings look pretty good for street/highway tires, plus they do have a 50k mile warranty (which would be a plus if you're going to be putting a lot of miles on them). But I don't know how they'll "look" for your truck. Your bumper commands a certain appearance that maybe at least some AT tires would be more appropriate. But that's totally up to you.

Good luck!

 

Ok so I placed the order for Rockstar 18" rims & tires but like you say the "look" on my truck needs more so now im have the options @ wheelfire.com for either Falken Wildpeak A/T 285/65/18 or Nitto Terra Grapplers 285/60/18.

The Falken's have the 50,000 mile warranty but just came out a couple weeks ago.
The Nitto on other hand have no warranty at all but widely used from what I can tell.
Go new with warranty?? or old w/ history??

I have til the the am to make a decision....

 

I think I've read that at least a couple people have been getting close to 50k out of the Nitto Terras as daily drivers anyway, and they have been widely lauded, as you said... whereas I've never heard of Falken ATs. So I'd probably go with the Nittos.

 

I'd go with the Nitto Terra Grappler.

 

what about the bfgs? too pricy? they run about 60K

 

The Final Rim & Tire decision: 18" KMC Rockstars & 285/65/18 Falken Wild Peak A/T's im enjoying! WIsh it had a wider stance, maybe spacers? & may lower truck some. Maybe.. but it looks pretty stout riding along, catching eyes...
