"I got BIG tires and I cannot lie"

[ZEUS]

And thanks. I cant tell you how many more people have stoped me and look and flag me down before I get back in my truck to ask what it is. The thing is made to be lifted, doesnt look right without it. I am very happy with outcome.

I couldn't agree more. Stance is everything! And the VX still handles really well with a lift. If I ever get a second VX it will be the dark silver with gray interior. Those wheels of yours look so good with that color... I could see me copying your setup but with the fantasy SAS and 35's.

Looks awesome...........is your front lifted up higher than the rear?

That looks sweet. I am gonna be using Barts 265 to see if I want that size but I really like the 285's you fit. I dont mind trimming at all. HMMMMM

I'm with you...I tried the "middle of the road" approach for a while with 265/70's... because I had all the same concerns that Bart has...didn't want to lose cornering, didn't want to lose mileage, etc., etc.

But after going to 285/75's there is no return...welcome to the dark (dirt) side.

Dunno I measured it but, will measure again thanks for noticing...




As for conering pfft liek Dub said in another post with enough hammeringa nd trimming you can turn just as sharp... But not at high speeds. Plus as far as gas goes still testing it. But we all didnt by our Vx's for thier gas effientcy <sp>.

was on previous page no worries i dont mind talking about em.
1.)rims are AR Thugs 18x9 6x5.5
2.)Tires are Grapplers 285/65/18
3.) Pfft i dont mind that way you can say wow nice price or point and laugh because paid too much. Price, well I got them from 4 wheel parts next to the house, was thier march sale. Got the online price I think outthe door was almost 2400. I forget exact price if you want to know will have to wait till I get home to look at invoice. But keep in mind that price is for 5 rims and tires... ya I didnt want to have a odd ball rim so I ponied up and bought 5. Course the sale was 25 % off so basically got the 5th wheel free. The tires were free shipping but probably could have gotten that anyways buying from store so not a deal. That price was for 5 tires and rims, wheel locks and to mount and balance tires. That doesnt include center caps as they cost me a extra 24 bucks because they have to spray teflon on them. I will have to get those this weekend.


Day pictures will be posted when I get home today.


As for the rest of you thanks I am super happy with them and the look even tho I scratched near the lug nut on one of the rims but oh well its only noticable to the user right??
