The Wallet Eater getting new shoes
 
They're on the way.

Many of you have come to know and love the Wallet Eater's current set of shoes, with their "character" (some use the word 'dirt'). But it's time to get some wheels that better fit my widened bed and PB DM. New wheels and tires should be here in the next few days. Pics to follow.

A special feature of the new ones is that they're chrome. I've been biatching about having to polish wheels for too long (as is evinced by the fact that the current wheels haven't been polished in quite a while-- I'm leaving the grime on them as a sort of protective coating to the metal underneath).

Hint: This is not them--

I can't believe that is not them pictured. Those would look so "tight" with your Lambo doors.

I am glad you decided to go with the 30's. I think it will pull the whole theme of the truck together.

Are they the kind that keep turning when you stop?

You're getting these aren't you? You could change them from chrome to dirt and back again with a click of a button.....

Then you missed the classic hookup... which is why I'm getting new wheels for the hooptey. Once I'm rollin', I suspect I'll have wimminz following me like the Pied Piper of Hamlin.

12-16K to get hot women in foreign sports cars to chase you down sounds reasonable to me :crazy:

I'm sure the professional athletes and rap stars will love 'em......

probably won't want my kids seeing what they put on them though.

I'll shoot you a note when I get the new ones on to see if we can work something out. If you do want the old ones, you'll need to rest your elbows... 'cuz they're going to need some major cleanup and polish.
