Just picked up a 2006 Lux on Tuesday the 16th.....pulled the chrome brush guard off that night...and the spare tire at the same time. Installed the 22" Rockstars and 37" Nitto Trail Grapplers yesterday...doing recon lights next week when they get in and a few more mods...

Thanks for the kind words.


I made a few more mods today Green Keys...only added 1 more inch to the H2 so it rides good still...I will add 1" spacers to the rear next week when they get in and new FOX 2.0 shocks as well with added travel for the small "lift" Also smoked the corner markers and tails today...looks great.

I love the white on black wheels...

Believe it's called the "Storm Trooper" look

What are the rim specs? 22by?? offset? any rubbing when you originally put them on without the lift?:perfect10s:

22x9.5 +12 offset

They set in a good ways...I wanted to keep it somewhat clean...they do rub at full lock on the sway bar.

looks good. Has your wife said anything about power and braking?
Does she drive at all on the Hwy?

Pahrump
02-22-2010, 03:01 AM
She likes it.....no issues..she has driven larger vehicles for years..either her Excursions or my lifted trucks....but she is coming out of an SRT8 Charger.......I drive it every now and again and took a 75 mile highway drive today...its no racetruck...but it does fine...I can pass at will and stop in a timely matter...the tires/wheels are not much heavier than stock really...I mean they are but not like its rolling 40s.

It could use some more power though.....and or gear change, it does want to come out of OD when cruising at 70-75 and theres an incline. We will probably re gear shortly not going the power route...its not a race machine nor our tow vechicle.

Nice truck, looks great! How do you like those Trail Grapplers? are they still loud?

Pahrump
02-23-2010, 05:45 PM
Thanks

I like the tires alot...they look great should perform well and are very quiet and smooth riding..to be honest if they built them larger I would buy them for my truck.
