raytard Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 save up repair cash.... my one friend got 22's on his (98 2-door)blazer, over the summer went through 4 rotors, 6 sets of pads, and basically a whole new front end, those little trucks dont like the big shoes apparantly he was dumb enough to take it on the beach, it was basically totaled after that and he got a maxima. But be mad careful, its a lot of strain on those little bits and pieces, especially in the front end.

cracker Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 ha well im a huge fan of the black on black so il give em a big thumbs up. just IMO the black wheels give it more of a clean clean look with black paint, over all chrome. more mature look. not hatin the all chrome wheels though, its just my opinion about the color paint the car/truck is. that would look very nice though bro. good luck on your search or purchase Quote March 2010 SOTM winner my old buildhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/50219-dank-aka-crackers-bonne-new-v2-build-in-the-works-hahahaaaaaa/page__hl__crackers my youtube page - http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=jackiedan04#g/u my feedback - http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/56540-official-cracker-feedback/ i need tacos and bass to live!!!!! and will NEVER change hahaaaa TEAM NOIZE VIOLATION Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But be mad careful, its a lot of strain on those little bits and pieces, especially in the front end. i agrea with that in a way too. i know GM trucks are known for there front end parts loosing up(balljoints,tierods,etc) maybe talk with the company and a few wheel shops to find out the info about the offset of the wheels and what would work best on your truck. a bad offset wheel will for sure give you premature brake wear and other front end parts bein the wheel might stick out farther than the stock wheels. but all in all i still like the wheels for sure lol. good call though ray for bringin that up, i should of though about that one bein a auto tech myself ha. but been layed off for the past year now so easy slip of the mind i guees lol Quote March 2010 SOTM winner my old buildhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/50219-dank-aka-crackers-bonne-new-v2-build-in-the-works-hahahaaaaaa/page__hl__crackers my youtube page - http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=jackiedan04#g/u my feedback - http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/56540-official-cracker-feedback/ i need tacos and bass to live!!!!! and will NEVER change hahaaaa TEAM NOIZE VIOLATION Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wL<3bass Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 (edited) Yeh but wheels are hard to find for this truck and I'm a big fan of black on black....would murder it out but I'm not taking all the chrome trim off and getting it powercoated to much work and money....plus with the little bit of chrome on my truck and the chrome lip I think it'll look hot. I didn't think 22s where that big IMO when I think of big 24s are about a small of a rim that I would classify as "big". edit: I'm no idiot when it comes to mechanical stuff on vehicles....I just wanted your guys opinion of the style.

SplPhreak Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 I'm a fan of chrome, so I don't like those. But you're gonna have to look at then every day, not me. Get something you can afford and like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
