Tell you the truth i really dont know what kind either of them are. The Tires are some off brand the my uncle bought back in 91 and had in his barn until i bought them off him in 08. All they say on the side is Super Sport Radial HT. The wheels came with a 83 Ram i bought the same summer, i actually had these tires on that truck at first until i blew it up and scraped it.

Heres a thread with some more pics, there is one of the wheels and tires if you want a better look. https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...97-1500-a.html


Thanks for the compliment, but next time you want to ask one certain person a question type there username or quote their message or something. I thought you were asking me but i wasnt sure.

Any ideas on other locations to put them that they wont look ugly and i can still open my tailgate???

Anyways i tried to fix an exhaust leak on my ram today but to do it properly i need another set of hands and eyes to do it.
max mentioned cutting holes out of the bumper and putting them in the bumper so they wouldnt get knocked off. someone also mentioned making some sort of gaurd or shield for them

i dont need the lights bad enough to put that much effort into it, plus my bumper is rusting apart and needs replaced anyway.

well i bought a set($20.31 total), and just finished the install. they look good, and bright as hell, though i didnt put them where i wanted because my drill went dead, but i got them mounted out farther.

i just put them on a switch, for now. i think im gonna try to run a relay as well, though im not sure yet.

i decided to go with smaller lights. and i put them on a toggle switch. the only time i need them is when there isn't any light behind the truck at all or when someone is tailgating me, which hasn't happened since i put the lights on the truck.

and i'm the one that mentioned skid plates for them. i was going to make them while i was at the shop boring out my spare throttle body but i had to get home after the throttle body got done. i will make them but i'm not sure when.
