Nah, 20 bucks for a couple of shoddy lookin ones and 125 for the ones in the pic. I have a tiny little apartment so I can't really spot a place for anything I can't use. I really do like the style of those though, and they're matching tread. I have 2 matching in the front and two mismatched in the back. Holidays

I finally got my new motor in and running, I can drive my truck again. Strangely though my low beams are not wanting to work right. Last night neither low beam would come on, the rest of the auto headlights seemed to be working right along with high beams, than this morning one side low beam came on but not the other.

I plan to do that this weekend. I'm getting rid of that crappy chrome trim around the wheel wells, but I'm going to leave the door trim. I'll see if I can get the "BLAZER" lettering out of the door trim and paint it to match the black with red trim bowtie emblems. I'll be removing the badges from the rear hatch and I got a black and red bowtie off of the trunk of a 2005 Monte Carlo SS that I plan to put on. I haven't decided on the placement of the bowtie for the hatch yet, but I considered placing it over the button to open the glass of the hatch so I'll push on the bowtie and the glass will poen. I'm not sure yet, but that is what I'm leaning towards. I'll get pics when it's done. Hopefully this weekend.

Guy said he'd take a hundred for the set of 4. One tread is bad due to a bad tie rod, but the others are fine. Probably gonna take the two matching up front and put them on and run two firestones.

Got my exhaust put on today. Magnaflow high flow cat and a flowmaster muffler. I don't know what model flowmaster because I bought it from my mechanic for $20 because he had it laying around his shop for some time. I love the way it sounds now. It's not too much louder than stock but flows better and that is exactly what I wanted. The 4.3 engines don't sound good to me, so I wanted to keep it quiet
