BTW - I was quoted $3,700.00 OTD for the Rancho install plus the warranty from Lynnwood, WA 4 Wheel Parts. As for your choice in 37" tires, I would highly advise against them. You will rob your truck of it's power and the gas consumption is horrible. I just went from 35" to 33" Toyo M/T's. I'll post pics tomorrow and a full review. The truck already needs about 50 lbs of additional torque. Just by adding the 35's it bogged the rig down considerably. In an H2 you can go from 35 to 37's and feel no loss in power because the beast has over 300 lbs of it. But in our I-5's it makes a material difference. I especially noticed it this evening when they took off the 35's and installed the 33's. I didn't have to floor the gas pedal like did with the 35's.

well now my price if i want the reseviors is 3400 for the kit. not sure if i need the reseviors or if u can even see them on this setup, but i figured what the hell...
my shop is too expensive.

I did get a glimps of what 33" mud tires would look like with a lift. While the tire shop was taking off my 35's and mounting my 33's, they kept the truck suspended so the 33's hung down as far as the suspension would allow.

It looked fantastic! I can imagine how great it would look with 35's (or even 37's). But for those of you who are considering a lift but still want to retain torque, 33's in a wide mud tire looks great with a lift as well.

any updates yet?

H3 Guy 10-25-2005 10:22 PM

Maybe we'll allow a little delay since his username is FLORIDAhummer and maybe the hurricane put a little damper on things.

DDWH 10-27-2005 01:02 AM

He might have got whacked by WILMA....I would think from his ID he is in Florida????

Klint 10-27-2005 02:01 AM

Guys and Girls Have you lost faith Do you not trust it do you not love it.. He drives a Hummer he can drive through Wilma while pulling his house.. . Come on!

Always trust, Always love and always allow it to help you through the hard tough road ahead

H3 Guy 10-27-2005 11:13 AM

I guess that depends if the Rancho kit was installed before Wilma. Then he can forge through the flooded waters.

evomind 10-27-2005 01:27 PM

33's? or 35's? They look huge. Kacyk has the same tires on 18"s or 20's and they look different. Can you post a few more pics... in a different thread.

kacyk 10-30-2005 03:21 AM

Mark that looks AWESOME! It's amazing what some width coupled with aggressive tread does to the look of the H3.
