Been thinking of some 18's

[ZEUS]

So how about these...? I think the accents totally fit the hotrod!

Since I have nothing to do at work:

I tried to scale the rims to an 18" size but I left the tires 'small'.

Yeah, I am feelin' this. The red line around your front fenders and hood, and then these wheels, it all ties in!

Nice find and photochopping, Justin!

I hope you say no....joking then there would be three of us with these rims. I wish I had a good side pic of my VX with my limo tint so you could show me how it would look on mine. I am thinking 18's too.

I am buying these next month.

SNAKE VX has them and I like them alot. It brings out the red. I think they would looks good on costiecosta's set up.

Yeah, I dig the look, & think they'd be great LOOKING, but I can also see those hex head details getting ripped out by the roots out Moab way...

Dude, I sincerely appreciate the Pho-chop...really does tie the whole red accent thing together.

If Harris is getting them, then I'm NOT!...






















































Kidding John...
Since it's already been done (Snake & soon, John), that, along with the price is the deal killer for me...

Besides, even if these get totally trail gank'd, a little sanding, bondo, & paint...



Did I mention, a shade over five bills...TO MY DOOR?...

DANG... You're GOOD!

Thanks for the look-see into the possible future......Drool

These seem to accentuate the gas spill better......

Centerline finally put "Tomahawk Rapids" into overstock pricing, even though they haven't been manufactured yet...

http://centerlinewheels.com/wheel_de...ehicle&data=20



Yeah, I know, over the orig budget @ $220.- ea. shipped, but I couldn't resist.

Also not showing much imagination going with the same wheels I already have in 20"... But being my fav wheel for years, & weighing only 22 lb ea.
And also being load rated @ well over 2K lb. per wheel...no brainer for me.

I hadda christian them down to that price over the phone, so if you're lookin' for Centerlines, don't settle for their first offer... (which was $220.- ea + shipping)

Of course they're gonna be shod in 35/12.50 x 18" Mud Grapplers.

Discount tire direct had the be$t price I could find on those.

In the end, patience won out, as Centerlines are usually $260.- + shipping ea. from Jegs or Summit.

Just ordered the Gorilla shorty chrome valve stems a few mins ago.

Can't wait to start painting the spokes black, epoxying skulls on em, & giving them a clear coat so I don't have to polish the shiny bits ever again...

Man Dub, I can totally respect your reasons for NOT choosing these (price/cost, Moab infliction) but, Dayam...these look like a perfect match for your ride!!!! (I can visualize in da fuutcha shiny cladding bolts to match the shiny rim bolts too...lol...okay..file that under price/cost...lol.)

I don't, however, share your concern over somebody else having them...if their nice & you like'im...get them!!! You guys don't fret over having the same tires... Way back when I was first shopping for wheels...I totally digged Baxman's choice but it was only my fear of fender modding (his were not available in 10-12mm offset like I wanted) that kept me from getting them!

I know we strive for originality in our rigs but If it's a homerun..dude...

(I hate to break this to you but VX KAT had the cool fuel spill 'tat' long ago..it is now soooo unoriginal..lol!)

In a short, concise, unabridged format....ME LIKEY THESE ONES!

I hear ya cluckin' big chicken... I really like those too...AND the "punisher" (skull) ones...I'm still undecided...
I also like the ones that look like the Volk's...http://www.vehicross.info/forums/sho...highlight=rota
And these would look good too, if not for the PITA factor of cleaning...



It's possible, that the right wheel hasn't been made yet...

And , that pic was taken on the trip home from Moab in 08', way before Kats "gas tat"...she's copying me!...

I hear ya cluckin' big chicken...

"If I'm a roo - Ah say - if I'm a rooster, I hope to be struck by lightn *KAPOW* Well, let's put it another way. "Way" that is."

"Say, boy, you cover about as much as a flapper skirt in a high wind."

"Boys as sharp as a bowling ball."

"This is gonna cause more confusion than a mouse in a burlesque show!"

"You're doing a lot of choppin', but no chips are flyin'."

"That girl's like that road between Fort Worth and Dallas....................................No curves."

"That boy's so dumb, he thinks a Mexican boarder pays rent."
