Yeah, bald 32's... that's why I got the 33" tires on the '01+ Rims. Fills the wheelwells a little better

My '99 looks nothing like a 98-00 truck anymore, atleast not from the exterior

Also, I was looking at that picture he posted again, I think that truck in the pictures is a 2000 model. It has a tan interior, and the only year to get the body color steering wheel was the '00 models (with the 98-00 interior) and that one has it.

My truck isn't stock so not only do my tires play a role in how bad my gas mileage is, haha. I haven't really calculated it with the 33's, but I was getting around 12mpg city with the 32's when they were new. I'd say I probably get around 10-11mpg city. 15-16mpg highway.

Gets better mileage still than my Trans Am! :lol:

The factory style centercaps (flat ones) are no longer available AFAIK. They do however have a suitable Chrysler replacement that works just as good, only they are chrome and have an embossed rams head.

What I meant by no longer available is via the dealer.

Ok, so thats not to bad logik. i get roughly 12.5 mpg right now with my 4.7l. almost stock.

And yeah those damn center caps. i only have 2 left. i almost stole 2 off of another durango that someone is letting go to ****. but i didn't have the ***** to pick em off.

And yeah i went to the damn dealer about the center caps and they wanted 25 god damn dollars for one of the new caps. So 30 bucks for all 4 on ebay is a really good deal. I might go look it up here.

you can always try a junkyard. if you can find a durango there maybe it still has its center caps lol might just be able to take em off and pocket em. most junkyards have fee's to get in like 2-3 bucks i think. around here at least.
