You gotta love that! :thumbsup:

She looks realy nice...

I looked at her thrice...

So you just got in a big old wreck...

Well give me a call & right out the check...

The frame is tweaked it looks real bad...

Insurance company says totaled so don't be mad...

Bob...bad imitation of a Hut...zilla

The wrecker is now super wrecker! It is always a little amazing to see how a new set of wheels and tires can lift a car or truck to a whole new level of appearance. That was truely money well spent.

I have seen the truck wheel/tire sets in gray, black, red and yellow. The chrome is really sweet. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

I agree wheels make the vehicle what ever it is.

Glad you finally did!!! Much, much, better!!! For my taste, I never liked those tough one style wheels. I wish AW had come up with something different...RM

Those RRR rims are great, aren;t they? I really love them. They also look good on Hot Rods too.

Naturally they look great, but tell us Jim ....do they run true or do you have to buy a baker's dozen to get a concentric set?

Are those knobby sidewall tires silicones? nd

I have a few sets of these wheels/tires.. They aren't grippy like silicone, but they do run true as long as they are pressed on right. No complaints about the ones I've used so far.. :thumbsup:
