Ya not bad for a set of junkyard salvage. I've got a set of Nitto 305/45R22s coming to spice things up.

Nice, I've been looking at a 20in rim, pricey and using a 35 diameter tire. Would be a hot looking truck. Even throwing around the idea of stacks. Just got to find some time to do the build.

While those FL wheels look mighty tempting, I like the Peterbilt ones better. Depending on how far out those stick on Luke's truck, I might have to get custom adapters made for the rear to keep them tucked in as much as possible. For $175/wheel, I'll sit on them until I'm ready to bolt them on. Gonna need some air ridesoon I think. Why did I have to go buy a house now?

Anyway, the wheels I want.

Have you put them on the truck and see if the fit Tate? You can get an idea and get your wheels turning. Fine tune the backspacing. How low you planning on going? I'm still fixing oil leaks, if it isn't leak from one spot its somewhere else. You ever put any soot onto that 42 garrett yet? I like to put my 42 (k-31/4292) beside your and see the differences. I think that you're running a tighter turbine housing than me. You could almost just run it as a single. Its only time right and some exhaust tubing.

I don't have those wheels yet, but I'm gonna call on Monday about them. I might hold off though, there are a couple other things I want yet.

Nothing real new with the twins. I have the hot pipe made, need to clean it up. I need some boots for the cold pipes before I cut and weld anything so I know how close I can get things. I went out near Flin Flon all last week fishing with my dad and uncles, so nothing happened on that front. I've got some projects on the go this week, but hopefully I can get going on them again. Piping *should* be fairly straight forward now, since its all the same size, but things rarely go as planned. Maybe I'll have them done before winter of 2015.
