Re: Drop please

January 8 2010. I only found it because you used the same pic with exactly the same name. Kind funny that it was the first of the year both times
I didn't look up the original thread to see if anyone else replied.

No apology needed, I only mentioned it because it struck me as odd.

Re: Drop please

the wheel needs to be the same profile/angle as whats on the truck if you want it to look right.

Even better would be a wheel, the size you are looking for with a tire already mounted.

We can cut one from another vehicle if you can find a picture.

Re: Drop please

The truck you want to take the wheels off of has to be parked in the same profile as the truck you want to put the tires on.

So parrk your truck exactly like this one, snap a picture and post it here and we can do the swap, no problem.
