should i put these

on this?
(http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa281/cory1410/SD531172.jpg)
the tires and wheels at top are 33" mud grapplers on 20" helo max wheels.
and the truck had 35" bfgs ( they run more like 34s) on 17" eagles
i can get the tires at top for $1700. they have 3000 miles and are in excellent shape, and the rims also only have 3k.
i was wondering how everyone would think they would look on my truck..
just want some opinions!!! and is that a good deal?
what else could you do with said $1700??
for my truck? alot. but its pretty much set up how i want it, but ive kinda always want 18s or 20s. other than that nothing rly. 4wheeler is how i want it too.
it seems like a good deal, b/c the tires/wheels are next to new, and when its time for new tires on the 17s, they will be about 12-1300..
Go for it. They will look good on there even though its a ford. ;)

THINK OF HOW MUCH THOSE 20 IN TIRES WILL BE TO REPLACE OVER YOUR 17 IN TIRES JUST A THOUGHT

thats all what i was thinking too.
esp your comment scratchup. my truck is fairly unique, and you cant get my rims anymore, everybody has them but like said everyone is going to 20s....
the 20" tire will cost you $80 - $100 more than the 17's also depending on you lift you need to check the offset of the 20's to make sure they wont rub
No. Those look way to ghetto. Take your $1,700.00 and invest it in a CD or an E Trade account or something. ;)

I have 3k in a CD right now 8)
yea thats kinda what i was thinking too.
im rly leaning towards no on this
keep it put aside for your tranny replacement coming soon. my sisters just went out in her ranger and the guy we took it to said he works on a ford tranny every day. if its an automatic.

This was my first idea when I read your post. If you save now at your age you will stress less as you get older. Get another CD then for $1500 and then you can waste the other $200 and still feel like you did something fun.

all depends on how it was taken care of.. mine was alwyas adult driven up to 125k. now its 135k and hasent changed. i know ppl with 185k on an orig tranny. but mine could very well be going out. like i said idk how it was treated for the 125k. i have enough extra to cover 2/3 tranny right now so ill worry about the other 1/3 when the time comes. and the money i would put towards the tires i think im gona sit on it for now. maybe get a few small things.or maybe a train horn :o lol

ya i see what your saying. the 3k is my start towards college
git a cold air intake ,dual exhaust ,tb spacer,and chip and get better mpg and a lil HP >:D
unless your one of the ''rednecks'' rollin through the hood blarin lil john and 50cents
i wouldn't, it has a nice classic look right now, those wheels are just a fad, the ones on there will still look good when those go out of style...
not to mention your truck will look donked out with 20s on a teal green truck.

cold air. check
programmer. check
exhaust. ill get to it one day
lol
you got a v8 w/ stock exhaust :banghead.gif
atleast rip itoff till you can git duals
There's a lot better things you can do with $1700. You can have gas for a month. I like the ones you already have. If you scratch those outside lips, they look like crap forever.
Keep what you have. I dont know who decided to bring the ghetto to 4x4s but I wish they would take it back. Those grapplers are crazy loud too.
Ya better save it for gas $$$$$$!

ford auto trannys build up pressure when they get hot and eventually a seal will go out to relieve the pressure.

yea good point. i spend about a lil under $300 a month on gas and i do a lil over $100 a week at my job (20 something hrs a week). so the rest usually covers insurance. i have to do side things to get "extras" for my truck

yea im not a huge fan on grapplers, i just couldnt decide on wheels. Ill keep mine, they are a classic look. i called the guy today to let him know that im not going to get them. when these bfgs wear out i want to get atzs or toyo m/t to get a more agressive look
thanks for all the opinions ;D
