Anyone got pics on a nnbs?
I hope to at least have some pics up soon here of what they'll look like on an OBS White 1997 Tahoe LT. (yep the one in my avatar)
I had a chance to speak with Tony via phone at about noon today, and all sounds great.
I'm 99.9% sure the 22's in Chrome will be what I'll go with.
Once those arrive, and all is well, I'm gonna pick up the phone and order 4 fresh Nitto 421Q in 285/45-22.
Once past these two steps, then into the local Discount Tire for Hunter Balancing, and I'll bring two at a time (in my crapmobile Kia), and mount them myself (by hand, and torqued via Snap-On 1/2" Drive.
I'm going to request Gorilla Lugs-Locks, these supposed to be better quality, why skimp?
I figure once all is cut and dried, I'll be at the $2200-$2300 mark.
But I like these wheels, and of course there's a 1000 more wheels I like too.
But I don't want TOTL show, or want a wheel where I run over a piece of pea gravel, and I'm replacing a wheel, or tire.
I don't want the latest "sprung down low" wagon wheel, where I'm driving like Grandma Hawkins into every parking lot.
Nor, do I want a wheel that 5 months later, I'm kicking myself, that I made a drastic mistake with some flashy, "faddish" monkey wheel.
I want class, sophistication, appeal, but don't want to look like a Tony Montana going down the street (Cop magnet)
The CK-375 was my prior choice, another very nice wheel IMO. I'm sure either will set my truck off as one of a kind and unique, and classy.
There's 2013's, and 2014's out there that aren't as clean as my Hoe. It sports a very clean paint jpb, no dings, dents, has some good mild mods, and only has an original 39.8K on the Odo. I am the original owner, ordered this truck fully loaded in fall 96. I've taken care of this truck better than my 1967 Corvette I once owned.
The wheels will probably be on their way to me some time Monday!
I know my ride is gonna look killer!
