New wheel and tires...

[Swany]

Well, I finally bit the bullet with some new toys for the pickup.

I picked up some American Racing Mojave's in a 20x10 and slapped on some IROK radial 39.5/13.5.

The truck was getting kinda loud with the Super Swampers wearing down so I decided to cut off the muffler and throw a tip on the rear too. We also ended up mod'ing the tranny a bit, new bypass and did a ram air.

They kinda look like pizza cutters in the front and it's a big difference in driving on 15.5 to 13.5's. Pretty sure my steering stabilize is shot, so that's next on the list.

Couldn't see the tread pattern too well in your picks but pulled up National Tire's website and Those would be great in the mud and muck. Which judging from the condition of your truck I'm not sure that I would be letting her play in the mud and muck - too much to clean...

So do you actually drive her off road or is she a pavement princess?

Me I would keep her on the pavement but that's only because I hate scrubbing... (read lazy bum)...

mud bogs, trails, not too many hills tho. I've taken that truck where usually only jeeps should go, so she isn't a pavement princess at all. It's a ***** to clean after mudding, but that's one of the many reasons I picked it up.

They look good Tom, put a before picture in this thread so we can see the diff between the two wheel tire combos....


As for whats next? How bout a set of injectors. You'll crap your pants when you hit the throttle.
