Shane if you ever plan on narrowing your rearend these would look good on there! 15x12 with a 5.5 backspacing....Will require longer studs though, selling for 250$

I can't decide. I want to back half it and make it a big tire truck but you know how people around here are. Big tires make it a race truck that nobody will race on the street. Then again it may never hook without them. Id like to have them but there not im not a big fan of the drag lites and my main priority is to get this thing on the road. Thanks for the offer though.

Swerve, what's the story on the s10 on the lift behind those wheels? Looks like a s10 bumper anyway.

Yep, trying to decide if i want to remove it and run a fuel cell or not. I dont like how it hangs down below the roll pan but i do like the fact that its all the way to the back of the truck and in the center. Could make for some good traction/wheelies lol.

We back-halfed/4-linked a S10 a few years back and used the blazer fuel tank set up. Couldn't even tell it was there visually. Once the truck sits all the way down, I bet you will forget about it.

Hello all from LA, we are looking to sponsor one, maybe two local cars. Our sponsorship would include a complete drive-train make-over, meaning engine, trans, and rear. Then we would do some removable graphics, a photo-shoot, and some cross-country promotion if the owner was willing to travel. If not, the obligation would be done after the photo-shoot. Car upgrades would be the owner's to keep from that point on. Our only requirements are a nice foundation cosmetically to start with....

My preliminary thoughts were the red SS I have seen so much of in this thread, and maybe one other. Do the guys that know him think he would be interested? Does anyone have any suggestions for another possible car? Feel free to post up your suggestions here in this thread..
