I don't think you could have picked a better size. Good choice with the black wheels

Default RE: got my wheels and tires!!!

Sorry it took so long to reply. Thanks for the comments.

I ended up with
- top gun customz 2" level kit
- rough country steering stabilizer
- pro comp alloy 7089's 17x9
- pro comp extreme all terrain's 305/65/17 (I think they are about 32.5x12 in inches)

-The finish is what pro comp alloy calls cast blast, it is an egg shell like matt finish. I was hoping that it would match my oem black tube stepswith a line-x type look, and it matches perfect. I was shooting for a red and black theme; red bodywith black wheels, tires, body moulding, mirrors, tool box, door handles, etc. and it is really starting to come together now.

- I am in Alton IL. It is straight across the river from St.Louis MO. Come on over anytime ya want.

Anyway, what do ya'll think I should do next? I am thinking about line-x down the rocker panels, or linex the front and rear bumper (only the crome part on the front bumper), or both the rockers and the bumpers? If I do the bumpers I was thinking I could even weld on some D-ring mounts on the rear bumper and grind the welds smooth before I have it sprayed with the line-x. Oh yeah and some type of fender flares, maybe oem power wagon type or bush wacker pocket style?

If anybody wants to see it from a different angle just let me know, I wouldbe more than happy to take more pics and post um.

oh yeah I forgot to mention the price too, I thought it was pretty good and though I would share it with ya.

I got it all from www.4wheelparts.comcheapest place I could find that still looked respectable. They also match any other advertised prices (even sale prices).

The wheels and tires came mounted and balanced. After it was all said and done it was 1399.63 total for the wheels and tires.
