lol. By scalloping I mean the tread starts to bow out causing a scalloped effect on the tire. You can feel it if you run your hand over the tread (there are lot of high points). It happens to a lot of off road tires after a while. It causes a lot of vibrations in the tires and a rough ride. Tire rotation and proper suspension/brake maintenance can help avoid this though...Generally scalloping is easier (from what I've seen anyway) on more aggressive and deeper treads..

And I have to butt in and say at this point you are hijacking the thread. This is a thread about lifted trucks, not wrecked civics. It's ok to get a bit off topic (we all do) but to the point of posting pics and telling stories that have nothing to do with the OP then it's to the point of hijacking. If you're interested in peoples wrecked rides, why not start up a "Wrecked" thread in this board then it can be open to everyone to post their rides they have wrecked in their life .

 

And that is exactly how you made it into my sig. Meany

 

I love it!! hahaha nice job.

But back on topic...Dan, do you mind if I ask how much a grappler tire like that runs?

 

If I may jump in I asked he said a grand for the set. Ha im ahead of you on this one. And you now have a permanent spot.

 

Missed these pics on the last page. SICK truck man. Those tires are awesome. Great looking trucks too! I love that front bumper/guard on the 4dr.

 

Thanks
LOL I just torched the push bar off a month ago as you can see in the build thread. I couldnt find a way to tie it together with the cage and make it look to my liking.
Thats all the same truck btw. I rolled the 4 door cab and caved the driver side a pillar into the dash and had to go with a 2 door body. I saw a build on Pirate where a guy took a 4 door cab and cut it off past the back doors and welded a pick up back window/back of cab to it. I wish I wouldve thought of that.

 

hahaha alex, i got a great deal on mine they were around 230 a piece.
aynor tire mart, in conway, South Carolina.


and i wrecked my civic by some dood in a huge car, did a uturn infront of me then i go reended.

 

When I first looked at it I thought it was the same truck, but then you had mentioned it was a 4dr then a 2dr, so I just assumed you had gotten a new one. That's cool though. I knew the under pinnings and tires looked the same lol.

 

hey Dabber, thnx ... the guy that owned the blazer before me had the 3" lift put in, they didn't use or get the bumper relocation plates so thats how it sits. I'm going to get some 1/4" aluminum mesh, cut it to size, form it, weld plates on it so I can mount it on the bumpers with provisions for the front driving lights & a pair I'm putting on the rear bumper for backing up to the boat or ? at night. Then get them black powder coated.

 

I miss this truck dearly...
