Ya Tires & Rims are next , in order to buy my stuff I have to sell something or do some paint work, Im not allowed to use our savings or credit cards, lol. I should have a set here in a couple months no big hurry , the tires that are on it are brand new. But if anyone wants to buy me rims & tires Ill be more then happy to take them , lOL!!!

 

what did you do for the small stuff that you needed to extend like the 4x4 selector and stuff like that? did extensions come with the kit?

 

and whats up with the gm performance parts sticker in the back ground lol

 

What rim and tire combo are you going with? It looks good!

 

Yes the Kit from Summit racing came with everything you needed to extend stuff & all bumper re location brackets. It wasent that it was hard to intall just time consuming but man I love it.

Im a HUGE Camaro fan Ive owned 8 camaros in my time I will only drive GM or Chrysler products , I even have a Chevy Bowtie tattoo on my back, lol. Im hoping next year to buy the brand new camaro or the new Dodge Challenger havent made up my mind just yet.

Im not sure in the tires just yet but I am going with some simple Black Rims not the wagon wheel ones I think the ones with the Dots.

 

lol im messing with you i will drive anything that was made before 75 doesn't matter who made it, ive got a 55 chevy truck tattoo on my arm

i would love to do a body lift on my truck but i dont believe i can because of my brush gaurd

 

oh and you've gotta go with the challenger
