Thanks, Holty. Hopefully soon! Used to be a matter of time now it's a matter of money. Before I decided to do more work for less money and go into law enforcement the only thing holding me back was working a lot of hours. Now I'm in the police academy as a recruit and believe me the pay sucks. I have a lot more time now but I'll probably have to wait until I'm out of the academy and making decent money again. I think I have everything except the fuel pump and I need to get my transmission rebuilt then I should be set.

Now why did I give up that management position again?

Thanks! Lowering it is on my list but I probably won't go lower than a 2/4.

I really like the new wheels - they look terrific on the truck. I have to tell you, though, I'm a big sucker for the BBS RW. I had a set of 20's like your old ones, but in the plasma finish, and I really regret selling them.

They're 34lbs I believe. Those 18s were around 35lbs per wheel (they are cast) so the difference is negligible.

Wheels were around $1,000 and the tires were like $800 mounted and balanced so a littler under $2,000 all together.

Thanks! I like the RWs as well but mine are damaged and I felt like a change. Might have the tires dismounted on them and try a little DIY wheel repair eventually. Maybe use them for drag radials if they turn out ok.

Thanks! I would go lower but I think it would cause problems considering the way I use my truck.
