Hey man, it's all good. I'm quite the lightweight myself. Nothing to be ashamed of. Just means it's cheaper for you to have a good time

I'm really excited now. I put one of the tires on my spare carrier just to get me even more psyched. I should have no trouble at all with fitting the other three right in the back to bring Em on up

hahahaha 5' in the front and stock in the back that would be funny. i think 5 in the back and stock on the front would look kinda cool.

it was spend 500+ to get this put in at some place and have some kid do it who doesnt care about what he is doing...

orrr drink beers meet some fellow jeepers and eat good food and learn some stuff

and BBrish we neeeeed to have a beach run!!!

also have fun at the creek man... I CANNOT wait to go back after I have the lift and some tires... I took her there stock and it was amazing but it was to the soundtrack of bang's and rock on metal scraping... hahaha

I have offically convinced myself that I need to now get 35's

18x9 rockstars in black (BOOOOO I KNOWWW... but I like them ) and 35x12.50 nitto mud grapplers.

I got a place down to 2300 for 5 mounted balanced and shipped to my door. not too shabby they have those tires for about 265 a piece and I have never seen them that cheap.

I might get a set of 4 shipped first for 1868.84 and then pick up the spare tire when $$ alows... its about 487.44 for each rim/tire mounted balanced and shipped to my door. (it gets a lil cheaper the more you order due to shipping)

what do you guys think... ?

I was also thinking the ballistic jester wheels in black but they are about 200$ a rim so the price goes up about 35$ per wheel.

I am 99% sure I want mud grapplers and 99% sure I want black 18's
I turned away from 20's because I couldnt afford 37'' or bigger... and 20's on 35's looks freaking sweat, but it destroys any ability to air down alot and go mashing through RC trails hahaha couldnt have that... 18's will take less of a beating (not that concerned if they get a few rashes... just dont want to pay for 20's and have them cracked and mashed to bits... hahaha

now its just a matter of saving $$$ and making it happen by the goal.... Flag day hahaha
