My statement was a generality I see cars with black rims too.

Yeah I get the whole rattle can thing but way to much black between the tires and the rims nothing to break it up oh well to each his own .

My new wheels will be Cragar v5s they are getting a nice coat of argent silver . No chrome either.

Carry on Gents .

Bedlined the trim black today and went to the pick and pull and found a perfect spare tire.

Eventually I will do it once I get a rear cut and fold bumper. I plan on getting Tube Fenders front and rear first. I plan on getting them Powdercoated to The Jeeps color code so the pc matches the paint. Or I may bedline them.

Last I heard, they don't know who did it. You can't just blame terrorism.

...But that's a discussion for another thread.

Whoever did it is a terrorist, blowing up innocent people kinda defines terrorism.

No it doesn't. Terrorism is politically motivated, by definition.

Before work this morning, I measured for bumpstops and ordered some hockey pucks for the front. Then I drove it to work. Between the very light wheeling I did last night and driving it on the street, I'm fairly impressed. Power isnt as bad as I thought it would be with the 33's on stock gears (factory 4.10's are nice, even with the little 2.5). And I've only managed to get the tires to rub a little bit once. Not bad at all for 1.5" lift, cut and fold fenders, and 33" tires. Still has decent flex too.
