Well finally found some tires and rims so im kind of excited.
There 33x12.5 BFG MT's one some 15" eagle alloys.
They have alot more offset on them then the stockers.
I had to trim some metal in the front and had to take off part of the flares.
Tried to install them with 1.5" spacers to holy man they stuck out way to far so i took them off plus the rubbed way to much.
here is some pics

You mean 12-15 in sand.
 






lol good catch i type to fast for my own good
 






I hope that it's the picture or that Sport has some serious gangsta lean to the right :D

but looks good otherwise.
 






ya im not to sure wtf`s going on there
 






is it just the rear leaning or is the front doing it too
 






well the front right tire is kinda in a hole it doesnt normally lean like that lol
 






well that might be your problem not a deep enough hole to show flex lol
 












not hard at all, just make sure you get a good colbalt drill bit for the front mounts.
i was thinking it was gonna take me 2 days but it took half a day
 






Really nice tire/wheel combo. I see you already broke the new tires in.
 






Your Sport looks good....!
 






thanks guys and yea i kinda tested them out i had some serious tire rub so i busted out the saw again now i think its good.
is that your sport in your dp sport 4.0
 






looks good keep up good work
 






Are you running 15 x 8 or 15 x 10 inch wheels. Love that color - really rare.
Do you know what the offset is?

I am jealous - you can't buy those wheels anymore. You are so lucky.

I have a similar color with my 2-tone... but for some reason most people until they see it in some good sunlight call it brown, Do you have that problem..?? I guess some would take yours as a red, when not in the sunlight...
Oh Well,
Looks Good.
You should take a look at mine, It's a year older than yours but very similar, besides my V8.
