A die-hard griz fan.. You'd be surprised at the amount of Montana grizzly cars, trucks, and bikes you'll find up here..

I was cringing putting the things on my taillights

...About as bad as those 'Sponsor' Donks?

Got a stare down with a Family Guy one at the course today.. had to have been 'lost' because he looked like he was gonna try to jack one of the Bentleys or Maseratis there.

no, a couple (or more than a couple) vinyl stickers and Maroon and silver paint is the most.. People in Missoula just really get into their college stuff. Every shop has signs in the windows promoting, and it's all by choice. Just pride in a 2 time national championship and 18 time conference title holding team. (football of course) Which is good considering Montana has less than 1 million people total, and some of the teams we play have 10 times that in one city.

that vette wasn't even bad, it had two griz paw vinyls and the leather embroidery (which i thought was ugly lol)

Just checked prices on wheels and tires.. A set of 4 18X9.5 wrapped in hankook tires is $1537 mounted and balanced... and tirerack's mounted and balanced set of 2 18X8.5 front and 18X9.5 rear wrapped in the same tire is $1679

So basically I would be paying $150 more to get smaller wheels done by tirerack rather than ones done locally. think I'm gonna save the money, get the bigger tires and go locally

May have an opportunity to buy a built 370 cubic inch motor and true duals for $1500.. big maybe at this point, but I'm trying to stay optimistic.

of course! I've been talked into some vogtland springs.. A guy I know with an 01 Z28 6.0 L swap has vogtlands and he said they feel exactly like his stranos did.. plus they're 60 dollars cheaper! lol

You know I've actually heard some bad stuff about OEwheels... the same guy that i was talking about with Revo bought some Zr1s from oe and they weren't completely casted or something along those lines, either way.. they didn't honor their warranty or something, and he had to spend the money to get the wheels fixed. not sure the correct story, but I know he had to pay more money out of his pocket for the wheels..

dmginc · 08-12-2011, 04:18 PM

will keep that in mind, i got a while before im buying wheels anyway...i will probably put new tires on the stock wheels for now give me a couple of years to do the other mods i want to do. i dont have nearly enough play money anymore lol!

where did you order yours from?
