If you go to www.speedtv.com and then go under program listings and select 'Unique Whips', you can see a schedule of upcoming episodes. It originally aired on 3/29, but just reaired on 4/28. They are always repeating episodes so it will be on again sometime I am sure. The episode was called, "Duelling Lambos". I just checked the schedule and it doesn't look like it's going to be on anytime this month. You will have to keep checking back as they update the page.

If your looking at running 37's check out Desert Racing Concepts, they make after market fender extensions for both front and rear, the same ones on the KORE trucks. KORE definately makes nice systems that allow the running of 37" MT's.

later, dustin

Sometires arent true to their size his might be a 37 and only measuring 36" which should work on a levelin kit.

Very nice rigs.. glad to see you got the 6 spd in the dually For those of you talking about Rickson wheels, and mentioning that they are pricy, Im not so sure that a guy who has a sweet new megacab dually, with just about every option that I can see, and a lambo, is not really concerned about $$.

Hahaha! Thanks for the financial backing! You are right, I may not be hurting for money, but what has allowed me to hold on to my money was buying high quality items, not just wasting my money. That's why I like doing research first. I don't mind paying double for product A, if product B costs 1/2 but will need replaced 3 times whereas product A will last the life of the truck. I just want to make my truck bulletproof because the ONE thing I cannot have (as I am sure SO MANY of my fellow towers can attest to) is a broken down tow rig. It's just not acceptable. I am not getting stuck on the side of the road, 400 miles from civilization with a $400,000 car in a trailer while I hope and pray Joe-Bob-Jim-Jethrow, the town mechanic, dentist, and taxidermist tries to fix my truck!!

So if Rickson is the way to go, or where I am actually leaning towards is either chromewheel or american force. As soon as I get approval, I will be able to show you what 22.5" alcoas with "traction" tires would look like (thanks to Photoshop)!
