New rims, what do you think?

[BIGdaddy]

The skins that are on it are worn out 245 70r16's.

I'll be replacing those shortly.

silver and gold right now.

pimpin'. :costumed-smiley-007

After dinner I'm gonna try to figure out the difference between

235 70r15
225 75r16
245 75r16

I use an online calculator, but if anyone gets to it before me, thats awesome too.

Hey, is that an awning? Any "awning deployed" photos? (Not to get off topic)

I like it. I'm not sure why, but I do. There are a ton of 245/75R16's available, so I would choose that size. The Tread Wright Warden's (BFG AT pattern) are only $78 each in that size.

yeah, thats a good idea, I love those tires. I ran them back when they were still Hi-tech retreading. I beat the crap outa 'em and they hardly wore at all.

About the rims, I know the feeling, Ryan. Been looking for some 16's since Mike has some tires for sale. Wasn't looking for this specific type, though.

I wasn't sold on them, but Melissa really liked the wheels, and I was given a GREAT deal by a Naxja gent, so I got them. I figured,"why not", for the price

Once I put them on, and stepped back, I was like...Cool!

 

[BIGdaddy]

Good to hear from you, btw!

I was actually just gonna PM you to see how things were for you guys.

 

[ExpoMike]

BTW, I have the set of 225/75-16 I PM'ed you about and a set of 245/75-16 as well. Just need to swap one tire off my spare and mount the other spare 245/75-16 I have. Then I will have the full set available.

IN-teresting.

What brand?

I'm gonna try to flex up the 245's tonight to see if they touch anywhere.
