Well, it seems I haven't been here in months but work has been busier than ever since we added the new truck to the fleet and also with help from Earl, we've been running 3 trucks on the road here recently. We've already matched last years sales numbers so that's a really good thing, the only bad is figuring out how much we need to spend to make sure we don't pay a high $$$ tax bill for 2015.


Anyways, one of the guys that has been working with me full time on the install crew had fallen on some hard times before he started working for me. The bank took back his landrover and he's been trying to sell these wheels for over a year and nobody has shown an interest. I wondered 2 things, maybe he didn't really try to tell them or to the average person these wheels aren't all that great but I think they look awesome on the Equinox! I would never go out and put wheels on a vehicle like this but for the price that I paid with tires that only had about 3000 miles on them, I couldn't pass them up! I sold the factory wheels for more than half the cost of these and I am liking them. These are 20" wheels and the tires are 275/75/20. The wheels are made by Starr wheels.

Sorry for the snapchat photo... ha ha

:eek:
It's good to know that you're still kicking, but I'd think you'd need to relax a little more. It's apparent that working so much has done something to your brain.

Good to hear from you, Brain.

Does this guy also own a step-side, single-cab GMT-400 with a custom silver, white, and red paint job?

Hey now, I think they are sweet. We tried to put them on Earl but the bolt pattern wasn't right.


And no, this is not a prank.

looks good IMO.

I want to upgrade my wife's '12 equinox also. I have been looking for a nice set of Camaro 20" takeoffs for hers but right now everyone here is asking way too much for them.

I know what you mean, everyone wants like 1200-1500 for Camaro wheels. You can get these wheels new from eBay for about 700-800 but then I'm sure there will be shipping cost too! But I bet you are hoping to find a deal on some wheels that come with tires.

Find Dr. Bob's nemesis and you can own a matching set.
