Nick, I plan on ordering a starter kit from Adam's this summer for the entire truck (also when I'll have more money; college and books have wiped the ol' bank account pretty good). Right now I'm just doing these rims. I fully plan on supporting Adam's.

Hopefully I'll get around to supporting you too if I ever rebuild an engine and trans. Once I start doing major work, I'm switching to Amsoil, but for now Mobil will work OK.



Just needed a little help on waxing for right now.

These aren't in matching order. They would have been in the same order, but I lost track :lol:. They're all ~200kb each so they shouldn't take too long to load.

Well....it might not be for a while. I either need to justify buying new tires this summer (close to $1k; Cooper Discoverer STT) and/or sell the ones that are on the truck now to help pay for them. I do have a 3rd set of steelies, but they have POS tires on them, but they would be a temporary fix if I were without tires.

The factory '98 rims currently have Firestone Destination A/T's on them with somewhere around 25k miles (they still look really good) on them. It'd be great if I would be able to get $500-700 for them. Although the tires are $100 a piece so $500 might be the limit. It's an option anyways.

But if I still have the other set I bought this spring when I get the truck out, I'm putting them on to see what they look like. At least I'll see the rims on the truck...just not my really nice ones.

I'll let you know when I close the boxes and then re-open them to put tires on them. :crackup:
