New wheels and tires for the avy!!
« on: September 28, 2010, 08:36:50 PM »
Alright fellas! Just ordered a set of Ultra Maverick 20x9 rims, and a set of Cooper LTZ 285/50/20 tires for the avy! Should have them on there first thing next week, I will post some before and after pics when it's done! I also got a leveling kit to allow some room to fit these in there and low, high, and fog hid's so once it's all done I will post the pics!

I like the rims. Do the black inserts come in different colors or can you paint them?

Ya you can get the center cap in chrome too, and the whole rim does come all chrome as well! My avy is pretty much all black and chrome, so think they will look slick!

Ya wanted a more aggresive tread, and did a ton of research and people have nothing but great things to say about these tires! Think it is a cool look so we will see when they are installed! Will post the pics and let you guys be the judge  :thumbsup:

I am sure they do but I wanted to just go with the 285/50/20 because I don't want to have any rubbing issues at all! With a leveling kit installed these should fit right in no prob!  :thumbup:

Great choice!.... ordered the same wheel last week.  I'm usually not a fan of black wheels, because I feel the design gets lost in the shadow of the wheel itself.  The machined edges on the spokes really set this wheel off.  I can't wait to see how yours turns out.

Ya my avy is mostly all black and chrome so wanted to have the same in a wheel. It is a slick looking wheel and I got a more aggresive tread tire to match it so hope it comes out as good as I hope! I will be posting pics of it as soon as they go on tomorrow or tuesday I think!  :thumbup:

I was tore between the chrome version and the black with machined face, but in the end ordered the black ones.  Mine are scheduled to be here on wed.  I may have to wait to get them mounted because I'm having issues with my leveling kit... we'll find out today when I give it one more try.

Well, got my wheels and tires mounted up, but I'm having to wait until Friday until my new leveling kit arrives.  We did do a test fit and it was a no-go with the factory setup.  The wheels are awesome and can't wait to see pics of yours.
