Once again they look awesome man. I haven't seen Scottscan in a while, but I think he had 20"s with 285s so yep its possible. I currently have Nitto 265s and they worked great until the snow came, lol.

Thanks guys, I really like the looks of the truck now IMO it really makes it look good.. Guy at discount tire says to me you have to bring your truck back in so I can see it when you start running them.. I just got done cleaning them and polishing them up, I really like this product from star bright, I have had 4 new boats over the 15 odd years or so and this product really held up and keep a slick surface for me so I like using it.. Cya Slick

You wanna here some funny sh*t, I get pulled over 1/4 mile from home tonight, I come home from work pretty late at night always stop Tim hortons for a coffee.. Well I am almost to my street and there is state boy waiting for me to go by so he can pull out.. Well I am doing about 3 mph over the speed limit no big deal I figure, well he turns out the same way I am going and by the time he turns out I am just about to my street and and I proceed to turn onto my street..

Next thing you know he turns onto my street and I was like "WTF" he pulls me over for having my front windows tinted, when he sees me he thought I was going to be some young punk kid and not some older guy, damit I am not that old almost 45 but not yet.. Well he did not even want to see my drivers licence now, I am like awe come on, he proceeds to tell me that I am not supposed to have them tinted Blah blah blah then he asks me for a doctors note and I told him I dont have one.. I was thinking like give me the ticket and stop acting like I am 100 years old or some thing LOL I will pay the ticket take the tint off then put it right back on..

I tell my wife and she is laughing about the whole thing just because she dont look near her age like I do whats a guy to do LOL.. Just a funny story that I thought I would share, I should tell you the one about when I told a female marine deputy to stop whining when me and a buddy where on my jet skis last summer, I am thinking I am getting a little cranky as I get older.. Its a good thing to have your wife work for a attorney for the last 24 years, it helps LOL.. Cya Slick

You didn't really wrap it up, did he give you a ticket? What a D-bag either way... What's your tint %?

no ticket, I dont know what percentage my tint is not real dark in the medium range.. Its the red truck that makes the tint stand out more, when I had my black dakota never even got question about it, no big deal just thought it was kinda funny..Cya Slick

Oh well that's good. Also, you can make your lugnuts black but they will probably chip a little every time you take them off. Chrome is usually the end-all finish, not to be painted. I thought those wheels came with the black ones already?

Here is the story, the lugs I bought from him are considerable smaller then stock.. There is not nearly the surface area and did not care for that because big tires and such need some size lugs holding it on not some thing cheap, I will go take a picture of some thing I also want to show you be right back..
