Default THINKING BIG!!

I've had my H3 for a bout 2 years now and love it, finally got rid of the stock wranglers (265/75/16) and got some new ones, Firestone destination A/T (285/75/16) I needed new tires and couldnt beat the beat the pricing for them. BIG MISTAKE-- I really wish i would have saved my good money and gotten 33's with 20's

My spring break was 2 weeks ago and i saw some really cool H3's now i kinda leaning toward doing a 4 inch lift with 335/55/22 SICK COMBO LOOKS GREAT
Problem is i'm a high school student and don't have a lot of money.

DOES ANY ONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS WHERE I CAN FIND WHAT I' LOOKING FOR IN A REASONABLE PRICE RANGE

Keep watching Ebay. I just bought a set of Hutchinson two piece dual beadlock wheels with GSA tires on it for about 15% of retail on Ebay. The wheels list for $2100.00 each and the tires about $400.00 each. You just have to be patient.

LOL At least that is better than the '75 Vega I had!

Later I upgraded to a '79 Sunbird . . . but a friend and I took a hot wrench to it and made it off-road capable. Yeah, I grew-up in a hick town.

REEF_H3- EBay and Craigslist . . . CL is a little more risky, but you can find some good deals.

at 19 I was driving a 76 Plymouth Duster (Powder Blue), Slant 6, Standard with NO floor boards (no state inspection in OH). Used to run over puddles on purpose to get my buddies wet. LOL
With holes like that in the floor boards didn't really matter if I had heat, you couldn't feel it!
