Now Doctahjones all you need to do is remove that pinstripe down the side, haha. Just a personal preference, I had to take mine off. Think it looks "cleaner"

Update

So far I really like the Duratracs. I haven't had any vibration problems with the spacers in the front. The spacers were custom made at a local wheel and tire store so can't give any more information on those. The only downside i've seen so far is the gas mileage has gone down about 1.5 mpg from aro...

Wheels

No plans as of now to lift it any, may do a leveling kit on it but that would be about it. The rubbing issue is in the back of the wheel well where the plastic mudflap attached. The spacing behind the wheel is the area not above that a lift would solve. I just used a heat gun and very gently rounded...

wheels

The offsets on the original rim were 20mm, the new one was a 14mm...hence had to put in the 1/4" spacer to accomodate. The rim was hitting the front calipers so bad that it would lock up the wheel when tightened down. Nice choice, I like the fuel hostage as well. The more I look at the rims and...

Running Boards

I thought the same thing this weekend. I have a 2001 Xterra as well that has the "tube" style running boards on it. I was wondering what a tube style running board in black would look like with it as well. I also took the pinstripe off the side....thought it looked better just solid white....

New Wheels and Tires

So this is my first post in here. I've spoken with a few of you via private message about some issues/questions I had. Thought I would throw a few pictures on here of what I did. Just got new Fuel Octane wheels on my 2008 LE V8. Wheels are 17x8.5 matte black fuel octane, tires are 265/70/17 Wrangler...
