THe NAC Lots-O-BFG KO2 Thread

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I refuse to spend more than 60 dollars per rim for anything.

Fortunately my V5s were like 55, the winter rims I got for the MJ were like 45, the summer rims are ZJ canyons and came with near brand new rubber on them for 250 a year and a half ago, and rims for the M54A2 are 50 bucks each at P&J truck parts on the way to Johnny's place.

Do they balance out?
I think they will balance out (I'll find out soon), but for a 'nice' car, they're real ugly.

Like I said, this is at least a year out. I won't be doing this till the current tires are spanked.

I have these...

And would like these...

Also opens me up to get bigger third gen front brakes.

But like I said, it still stops fine and my wheels still balance out so no need.

I could also use that money instead to get a jake brake :shocked:
 
Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I <3 Colin's stock wheels... if I get a CTD with steelies, and you ever get new wheels, I just might want yours!
 
Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Here I was thinking you weren't going to mod the DD. :firedevil

Speaking of which I really need to start tearing the MJ down. It's getting nice enough out these days that I can actually fathom the idea of getting home from working on the house at 10pm and immediately starting work on it.

I also have brand new rear drum brakes for 00-01.5.

I'd love to get a jake brake. It would help out on the hills to/from PA quite a bit. Diesels don't have the greatest engine braking (which I would think is due to the high compression ratio?).

In my dad's '08 6.7, he can set the cruise, turn on the jake brake and a/c, and pretty much take a nap behind the wheel. Doesn't even downshift on hills towing his challenger.

His tires are stretched and the sidewall is shorter on those than on stock, so in that picture I agree. the 245/35 sidewall is the same height (within a couple mm) as 225/40 and won't stretch at all. I'm going to a wider rim for better grip, not for looks yo

Here's what I've got for summer rims now (225/40R18)

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I'm swapping my front brakes and tires/wheels with you at NACfest while you're asleep at 4 a.m.
Haven't you realized it? Chris is Dracula. Hardly sleeps, doesn't eat the food he cooks, has ghastly features... It all lines up.

He'll catch you steelin his rims.

that was horrible.

PS UJ run on 4/17, you should be there. Feel free to steal my jeep and beat the hell out of it, if I can't break it you probably can't either.
