    Honda 450, pit bike, spare set of wheels and tires, whole bunch of luggage and gear.

    ^ love that truck. Wish I could swap my running gear into one of those.


    Yep,
    My truck has earned it's keep. As a home owner, I regularly need a truck to haul crap and using my friend's chevy 1500 was killing me on gas.

    The chevy had twice the payload but my truck is twice the fun to drive.

    Trust me, if I found a clean one ( clean cab with solid frame) near me that was practically being given away, I'd be on it.

    I picked some up from an old rx7 i believe. The previous owner was not sure, but he was using them on his rx7. I had to grind the middle down a little to get them to fit, but they are are. I will have pics as soon as I get my truck back this weekend! CANT WAIT :clapping:

    I haul an air compressor and air tank in my truck everyday. I also sometimes haul a skateboard or my pit bike to the trails as well and every now and then a dead body, people tend to walk out in front of me downtown since my trucks so low they cant see it over the parked cars on the street LOL

    The rims your looking for are crown vic rims. They look exactly like that. Nice mesh wheels. Been trying to find a pair for myself.
