    That seems like even more work than spraying them with a hose, which is my plan so far.

    More plastic than "soft rubber" but will do.

    Can you get those as a belt buckle? Turn the open carry game on its head!

I just happened to look down in a pile of wheels next to the ones I was pulling, and noticed a way better looking Isuzu wheel, and what's this? It was a 17" wheel. Didn't know that they ever made a 17" wheel. Turns out they put them on the Axioms. Took me two trips to two different yards around town, but I managed to snag five wheels between two vehicles. I'm scheduled to pick up some 285/70r17 tires (33's) tomorrow evening. Fortunately the bolt pattern is 6 on 5.5 which is shared by Toyota, Mitsubishi, Mazda, Nissan, and Chevy, so finding some cheap aluminum wheels wasn't going to be a huge problem.



    Best part is they're already beat up, so I don't have to worry about scratching them on the trail!
    Double check your speedo reading, after installing. Different size wheels/tires can throw the mph off.

    I'm already running 3" larger tires, speedo has never been on. Fortunately technology makes getting a GPS speed pretty easy now a days.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
