i'm not sure how his indicator lights work yet, he's drawn up the wiring and stuff for me, and i certainly didn't put together the stainless dash lol...i would never have even come up with anything like that...it may look better than those pics do it justice, but he took those pics, not me. i definitely want to replace that steering wheel with a grant black gtII steering wheel. as far as a 6 speed? that wouldn't work out well, it's got traction issues w/ the auto. (ps, if it isn't obivous...i didn't buy the truck for the dash =P ) Last edited by suicide_star; 11-06-2008 at 09:33 PM.. |

Well I didn't think you did, I would hope not anyway.
And if you got traction issues, you need a better tire, and possibly wider than what it has. What size does it have anyway? Looks like it might have 275/50R15's, or are they 295's? That thing is definitely killer and I want it. |

A 235/75R15? Those are kind of tall, but definitely not wide.
I am running a 245/60R15 on the back of my Camaro, really I need to be running a 50. 275/50's would be perfect for it if it doesn't have them already, trust me they will fit. They are shorter than the 235's. Just for reference, 235 is width, 75 is height. |

i think your talking about the nitto 555R's and they are junk lol.
Id run a bridgestone or kumho any day over nitto's over priced tires. dont even think about running 555R's in the rain either geez. |

You forgot to mention that Nittos seem to wear prematurely as well; regardless of a proper alignment or not (or modified suspension). I feel that Kumho makes a better tire than Nitto and they are supposed to be bottom of the line compared to Nitto. Just my two cents.

but at like 300 bucks a tire or whatever they cost now days, to only get 8k miles is just rediculous. I find the higher end kumhos quite nice, while they do make some cheaper tires, they make some good ones too. these wouldnt be good for a rwd chevy, but the bridgestone RE90 potenzas taht i ran on my sti were amazing, loved those tires, and they were reasonably priced. and really stuck to the pavement. but as a drag tire, i dont think they would be the best. |

That is exactly what I mean, they are not worth the ridiculous amount that you pay for them. Anyway, nice Blazer Suicide...just don't go with Corvette tail lights (I had a friend that had a set on his Blazer, and they looked dumb imo). By the way, how is the Civic?

5 more days and the blazer will be here. no corvette tails, i have smoked out euro tails that are so dark that they blend right into the body, i decided that im going to powdercoat the billet grille black, swapping out all the turn signals with smoked clear signals, and probably changing out the headlights with a black h4 projector light. otherwise the exterior is staying as is. here are the headlights (photobucket is not cooperating with me) i'm undecided between the black or the chrome http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/88-93...Q5fAccessories http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/83-85...Q5fAccessories opinions? help me out =P |
