Let me know if you guys head to this new meet. I'd like to hit it up too!

I do have to say that I am still a little partial to the old 17's you had on there. Thats not to say that the Boyds don't look great too, but it just flowed well together with the stockers.

i liked the factory wheels too but i couldnt fit the width of tire i wanted on them. traction with the new wheel/tire combo is awesome. check out what i just did to one of them last night 
hopefully it dosent cost me too much to repair it

its not guna cost as much as i thought. 150 to have it repaired at houston house of dubz. i hear they do awesome work 
ill be impressed if they get this out...theres a serous a flat spot half wayt around the rim where i smacked the curb.
about what happened. i was trying to get around another truck...he brake checked while i was in the process of switching lanes so i floored it(pissed about him checking me). right when i downshifted and started to spin a little the ******** decided he wanted my lane so i ended up hanging the rear end out sideways and kissed the curb. i didnt expect my rim to be rashed so i didnt think anything about it. a cheap lesson about curbs and low pro tires
