Gunner you're cool..I was just kidding of course...I think you have a perfect right to bitch because of the proffessional incompetence of those you were dealing with...I'd complain my *** off too..
Good luck, like I said, they look good..maybe you're better off in the long run on these tires and wheels.

I've got a thick skin.

Besides, I've read almost all the posts on this site all the way back to when God was a boy.

I have a pretty good idea of when you are "laying it on thick". (However, I did think you had a point)

Speaking of which (reading posts), I find it difficult sometimes to not chime in on some things because
it feels like I know you guys. Whether it be Dilo, IK, Humbob, Shortbusor yourself.....I sort sort of have you guys
at a disadvantage knowing your history while you know nothing about myself or any other newbie. So...If ....I / We post
something that makes you go WhoTF does this guy think he is....Well, now you know.

As for the delays and misqueues, FWP did come through in the end and Stallion Customs turned out
to be some stand up guys as well. Cognito Motorsports did EXACTLY what they said they were going
to do.....and Teaka Toys was johnny on the spot.

I just wish I could say that about a few of the other vendors. Live and learn.

I think I'm gonna like this tire and wheel package. I'm really diggin' the wheels and I've never had a Swamper let me down.

Hopefully I'll get you guys some better shots tomorrow of the "made over" rig.

It's come a long way from that "just of the lot look" and no longer looks like every other black H3 in town (here in Dallas, that's a lot! ! ! )..

Chewbarka,

here is the info you requested.

Wheels PXA 6079-7983 17x9 6-5.5 4.75 BS
Rings PXA 7179173000 17" Chrome Beadlock rings
Tires Interco Super Swamper TrxUs Mud Terrain Radials 12.50 X 33

The wheels do come in black and the rings come in several different colors.

My second choice was a black rim/ chrome lugs and center cap/chrome ring and black hardware.

They are proud of the damn things though.

Just keep dicking with 'em and they will throw in some extra stuff or not charge you extra for something

Keep me posted on what you finally choose....Can't wait to see it.

Great comments Gunner_45, regarding newbs. I agree that as a newbie myself, I'm probably overly keen, as I'm so thrilled with my H3, and thisgreat site and friendly members. The fact that we as newbs have covertly been reading the past posts, has given us a sense of familiarity with everyone else, which means that my posts may come across as arrogant or as asmart-a$$ to long time members whenI have not "earned my stripes". Certainly not trying to step on any toes.[sm=icon_cheers.gif]
Gunner_45, your rig looks great, glad things have worked out, and I can't wait to see more pics. I think it's great to see all the variations people do to their vehicles, and the great advice/help that comes from contributing ideas.

looks good gunner...glad it all worked out for you!!

Crash, I live in NJ and had aluminum rims on my tahoe for 4 years and never had a problem with the finish. Also if you do get teh TPM message it will only show up once every ignition cycle, just push in the trip odo. button and the message will go away and stay away until the next ignition cycle....not a big deal at all. I have had no sensors in my aftermarket wheels for 4 or 5 months now and have recieved the serv tps message like 4 times.

Thanks IK. Your insight regarding rim fitmenthad a lot to do with the wheels I chose.

TPMS: You are right, it is no big deal.....More of a curiosity than anything.

I wonder...Could different software Rev's make the TPMS behave differently between the model years?

Like I said earlier, mine alarmed with no rhyme or reason:

"Sometimes after cranking, sometimes 10 miles into my commute, sometimes only once, sometimes 3 times".

Wierd, weird, weered........

BTW: What kind of shop Manual/CD do you have? I'd like to invest in one myself. Got any reccomendations?

I think they are all the same the way they are supposed to set off the tps system. By once every ignition cycle I didn't mean that it will go off when you crank the car, I meant that when it does go off and you clear the message that it will not go back off again until the car is shut off and started again.

I agree with you 100%...the entire TPS system is ridiculous and very weird.
