Looks good. The backspacing for those wheels is perfect. Lose the mudflaps...they ruin everything.

 

Aye the Mud flaps wreck the pic, but back when the truck was my year round vehicle I needed them, they don't throw sand on the road up here when it snows, they throw gravel. Not like those flaps will stop much with all that tire there anyway.

 

have you tried to launch with these bad boys yet?? I'll bet they hook like crazy if theyre nice and warm...

-I cant stop looking at the pics... I want something just like that for sure.

 

Any updates? New pics, etc.?

 

yea, updates? and do you know why they were rubbing?? and could you have ordered the wheels any different so they wouldnt rub?

 

Got the rubbing fixed, the rims dip in about half an inch right before the spokes, and that's about an 8th too much. I ground down the brakes a little to make them clear.

I am not making enough power to take full advantage of them right now. Well I am but I am track elevation is sucking a good 35hp from me. When I get my 100+ shot in next spring I'll make better use of them. I shaved 3/10ths off my 60' but they are too wide and slow me down enough on the top end to negate my gains down low. Truck falls on it's face in 3rd, party the tires but more so in the hemi's stock computer. :\

No new pics yet, I'll try to get some more up.

 

hey idk if you've said this yet or not, but what type are those wheels? i know american racing, but which series?

 

I was thinking when I was lookng into the 12 wide rims that those were called the MOAB in that size... I also seem to remember they were a bitch to find even on thier website... sorry I do not remember exactly where I looked to get the info.. but seems like at the time they were selling for $250 each... ouch!!

They are an American Racing Hopster Custom Offset (Series 450) 2-piece alloy, polished. They were around $350 canuck bucks ($280us) .

 

The tires look great! Where'd you find that size? These are 17X11's w/7" back spacing in my signature and I'm looking for something a little taller than what I have now.
