Mannnnnn I bought some used continental 245/35's and they still can mount them. So now I guess I have to try and sell these and buy 255 for the front. Are Hancook v12's hard to stretch? The used wood blocks to stretch the tire, cheetah at 150 psi and filling up the valve stem. Tried hairspray too! Is there another way? I told them to set em in the sun but they didn't

I like it. Is it possible to get Rays / Volk wheels re-barreled too?

And this picture makes me miss my OEM rear bumper. :sadface:

Good information to know. This might be a good time to try and get a set of SF-Challenges and get them re-barreled to a 20" step lip.

Powdercoat or paint on the wheels? Regardless, the finish is really unique among DG drivers. I wonder how long it will take Chris to hop on this trend.

If they are a 2 piece wheel I think u can get the ring that holds the face on rewelded for a more aggressive offset.. or u can make them 3 piece..

U gonna have to buy 4 inners,4 outers, new hardware and on u if u get a custom color and also labor I would say a set would cost you around 2000-2500. That's also aside from buying the SF challenges but you can always resell barrels too
