found a set of stock rims cheap. I am going to paint them with a black bed liner and 1.5 spacers and get some new tires. Get this- My 15x10s are 34lbs and my 33x12.5s are 57lbs so that is 91lbs a piece! I think the stock 16x7 rims are around 22-25 lbs a piece hopefully make a big difference. still looking for a good tire that will look good and be light.
Let me know how painting the stockers go, i have the aluminum 16"s, and ive seen someone painted theirs with some duplicolor stuff or something like that, but i think they will look good in black
I wouldn't bed line the wheels, just paint them. Check out the ST site, there's a thread about different paint schemes on the factory wheels, check it out.
Yeah make since. I will just prime, paint gloss black. Going to get a stock set of rims with 255/70s on them for $100. Im thinking i am going to go with a 265/70 or a 265/75. with a 1.5 spacer.
