Got Me Some New Wheels

Unique 297's and I like them a lot. They're 15x8's so I think the 33's look better on them. They looked sort of pinched at the bead on the stock wheels. Oh and I also removed the chrome trim from the fenders.

I'll have to take you up on that offer. Allen's 45 minutes north of dallas, just above plano, incase you didn't know.

I know I've been trying to think of what to do about that, new bumpers perhaps?

They're really cheap too. Plus I got an employee discount from Discount Tire, so I payed 30 bucks a wheel.

Um, there's a place off george bush at campbell. Then a place up in McKinney by the huge blockbuster headquarters place thing. Other than that I've been looking for some spots and messing around on some trails around town.

Hey traben, I've been to Texas, or more correctly DFW. From the plane Texas looks flat, too flat, there has to be some elevation changes.

Those wheels look like the ones I just bought Pro Comp series 97

Well, how much different of a design can you get on black steelies haha. I'm loving these so far, i smile every time i look at my truck.

And texas isn't that flat, there are "hills" all over the place Plus West texas has mountains, or something like that. I dont know i've never been there haha.
