Hey guys I got my wheels and tires on today. Have a lookse.. =)

I know there are alot of nay sayers for the 20s but MY GAWD these look good to me!!

The wheels are Helos - Maxx6 20x10

The tires are Toyo - Open Country M/T (Mud Terrain) 33x12.5x20

Mr. Parker:

Now THAT is one nice rig!!

I like the fact that you don't have the chrome package, too. IMHO, that would be TOO MUCH.

You've definitely got the right mix.

Well done bro, well done......... </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

That's a bad @ss truck bparker. I was on the website a couple of months ago trying to decide between off-road and marker lights. Since they won't be in for a while, I guess I can keep thinking about it.

F Firm, he knows nothing, they look perfect. I am glad I bought the 305 55 20 same size tires. Wheesl should be here Thursday...

Firm, maybe some wires in 25s for your Hummer?

[bparker]

Drives just like stock but better in some ways as it corners like a car now. No sway or lean to it at all.

Off road: I would have to say about the same for my type of offroading. The only thing that will hurt me is if/when I ever want to "air down" my tires for extra grip on rocks. I dont have as much side wall flex to wrap around rocks. But again, this really doesnt bother me at all as even when I had my Jeep I never once needed to air down the tires for grip with a rear locker.

Hello everyone and thanks for the info! New to the forum and the Hummer world and hope to get my first one by Christmas .

It has been great reading all the info and experiences of everyone.

Bparker, had a question for you or others that may know: How do the 20’s perform when off-roading? I would like to get me a “sick pair of rims like yours once I get my H3, but do not want to sacrifice off-road performance or towing capacity for that matter. Any info or insight would be much appreciated.

Thanks again and nice pics!

Personally I would like to see both as an option Marker and offroad lights. What is the space or gap for between the marker lights. Builder any input on why you can not have both?

thanks!

The OEM wheel is a 16x8 size and a 6x5.5 bolt pattern with a 0 (zero) offset.

The wheels I have on now are a -30mm offset which is why they stick out so much =)

So, you are looking for a wheel with a 6x5.5 bolt pattern and with less amount of negative offset as possible if you dont want them to stick out any.

Hey, I know that hummer builder posted this before in another thread but I can't find it. What is the factory rim and offset? I think I recall 16X8 on 6X6.5??

Basically I am looking for a nice pair of aftermarket rims that keep the stock offset and geometry. Any info on the bolt pattern (either metric or english) and offset would be great.

Thanks,

What is a roog rack?

[bparker]

The spare will work fine as all tires are 33" tall.

Thanks guys!

BTW Yours looks great bparker!!! I would love to do the same setup. However, I'm a two year lease, and while I'm 99% that I go H3 again (hopefully they will have a turbo out by then) but I don't want to put a bunch of cash into rims and tires if I decide to get an (or can afford) an H2.

Don't recall if you mentioned it before or not but if you don't mind, what are they charging you a month for the 24 month lease? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Disclaimer..please no one tell me I got screwed, cause if I did it would be too depressing to know ;-)

Victory Red, Adventure Package, Sun Roof, CD-MP3 Monsoon. 24 months 12K per year with 1,200 total out of pocket (first month, title, plate transfer, all that other jazz), $440 per month. In fairness to the dealer they did give me a good chunk of money to help get out of my other GMAC lease that didn't qualify for the Pull Ahead Program.

Intersting side note, I knew I was going get screwed on the last lease. I knew the the H3 would be out about this time and the 2 year lease was going to be too short and the 3 year too long...although I must say I cut it pretty close!

A "roog" rack is a invite only special dealer ordered rack that is very limited production by GM. And I will be the only one to get a roog rack this year.

[woyster_h3]

Those rims and tires look AWESOME! I want to get a set of Black Helo Maxx 6 rims and some tires on my H3...however with the H3 not really being mine (it is the wife's) it might be hard to get approved. Hopefully showing her pictures of yours will make it easier.

Great looking H3!!

[H3 Buyer to be?]

Thank you !

[jp's-h3]

Sweeeeeet!
There is a custom tire / wheel shop here in salt lake that will give you top $$ on factory tires / wheels when you trade in on new one's. I'm heading over there the day I get my H3..
SEE YA! JP'S-H3

[drmiles]

Wow that really looks great
