I finally got the 35's

[Mega-Hemi]

thanks for the feed back guys, I am really enjoying the ride. Turning a lot of heads including mine every time I get out of my truck.
My nephew was freaking out 2 days ago when I pulled into there drive way. He was screaming dad a monster truck is in our drive way, and my brother said that's your uncle. So of course when he came out side running he exclaimed woooh nice monster truck uncle Craig. He is 4, so I then had to give him a ride in it. I think I made his day... I know it is far from a monster truck but to a 4 yr old it was the greatest thing in the world.. Thanks again for the comments.

I remember when I had my '01 with the 5" lift and 35's. My girlfriends (now wife) nephews always wanted to go for a ride when I came over. It was fun putting a smile on their faces. And of course it made brownie points for me which put a smile on my face later..

yeah spent this past Easter at the folks and the nephew was there as well. I had to drive back home just to get the truck as he wanted to go for a ride. It is nice to be able to make someones day with something so simple, especially when it is a kid. Good thing I don't live far from my folks. Best part about it was he wanted me to take a couple pictures of him buy it so he could put them on his bedroom wall, so now I am his favorite uncle from what he tells me.

i've been looking at these for a while, did you go with the 18's or 20's? I'm assuming you did 18's with a 35" tire and no lift correct?

Yes they are 18's, they were way cheaper than 20's and I like the look of more verses less rubber from rim to top of tire. Gives the truck a more aggressive look with more rubber, my opinion. I do have a level lift in the truck Bilstein leveling shocks, which brought the front up 2.5". If you do decide to pull the trigger on new tires and or rims check out the thread I posted on a good place to buy. I could not find anyone cheaper, even tire rack couldn't touch the price.

i did send them a quote request yesterday but they haven't responded yet

Well boys I finally splurged and got my 35's and new rims today. I really wanted the Fuel Throttles but I wasn't going to wait 4mnths to get them so I got these. They are American Eagle, American Alloy series 079, with Nitto Trail grapplers on them. The pictures don't do them justice, but you'll get the idea. Click the link below to take a look...

Hey maybe I can help

still no quote

Hey sorry to hear you have not heard from them. I pm'd you their business phone number. This place is 1hr and 15min. from my place so I can not just go over and say something to them. I will call just in case you do not have a nationwide calling plan, but that is pretty much all I can do. If they do not do justice to anyone please tell me and I will request the link removed from the forum...
People in my area have had really good luck with these guys, and I was extremely happy to do business with them and the customer support was fantastic. If I hear otherwise I will stop recommending them.
I do know this, their normal web site Extreme Customs was hacked, so they since switched to a different site- the one I posted... If you go to extreme customs on the web you will see it is being fixed.

I will try my best to get a hold of them for you, but like I said I am not in their backyard... You also have to remember that they get hundreds of quote requests. From around the United States, and from Ebay. Hopefully your wait is worth it... I do know that a couple guys from another forum had great luck with them, so be patient it has only been 3 days man. I know when you decide you want it yesterday, I am the same way but like they say patience is a virtue.. Happy shopping

no problem, I don't blame you at all, you're just trying to help the community out, no shame there. If I found a good deal I thought others would benefit from I'd share it as well, so don't feel like you're sticking your neck on the line.
