Someone has got their mud shoes on!

Looking Good

 

Evil! Like it!! A lot!!!

 

Some Bad boy shoes there
Link is not working. Info on the rims please !

 

Looks awesome!!

 

I was looking for 20" but now I think I will just get some bad boy shoes !
Found them here:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/4-New-Achi...tm/4-New-Achilles-Desert-Hawk-X-mt-265x60r18-Tires-60r-18-2656018-/263395677544

 

Somewhere there is a big mud puddle calling your name.

 

Lookin Sharp!!! Purpose built!

 

Agressive looking tread! How does it handle on the street?

Looks like it's time to hit the trails!

 

Has the suspension been lowered or is it in loading mode?
Or is it just the big tires filling the wheel well?

 

Stock/standard height setting.
The tires are surprisingly smooth on the road. There is a little swim in the quick maneuvers at highway speed, say dodging something on the road, but that's to be expected with 3/4" of tread your tip-toeing on. Fully satisfied with this purchase.
$606.63 to the door (included 6% PA state tax and a strange $2.59 shipping fee)

 

Air suspension I presume like all v10? Not steel?
And mpg wise?

Looks great!

 

imquattro, do you confirm those rims are the FAT BOY part number 7L6601025AA?
I'm trying to copy your setup here
8 Jx18H2 ET57, right?

 

I’m not sure of the part number but I am running 2 inch spacers on these 18” wheels

 

Ah that's an important detail ! Thanks for the info.
Where did you get the spacers? Any links?
Would mind posting back some feedback on the wheels when you have done some miles on them?
Noise is what is worrying me for the moment.

 

The spacers aren't necessary to run these. I just like the stance/stick-out.
Can't locate the old listing anymore (ebay) but here's a similar listing:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/4x-WHEEL-SPACERS-5X130-71-5-CB-14X1-5-STUD-50mm-2-CONVERT-TO-LUG-TYPE/192273468483?hash=item2cc4644c43:g:ugEAAOSw8wFbIGlw:sc:USPSPriorityFlatRateBox!17756!US!-1
I paid only $120 for my set of 4.

 

Ok thanks.
Did you test and check for rubbing without the spacers first or did you install with the spacers from the beginning?

 

I've been running the spacers for about a year now. These being only 265/60 series tires aren't much bigger than the stock wheels that generally have lots of room around them.
I wouldn't doubt they'd fit with no issues without the spacers.

 

Ok thanks.
By the way I ses you have a 3.2 in your signature. Do you still have it? I need some help with a rich mixture issue.
Do you have vcds?
I need some logs if you don't mind.
here is my thread:

Can you post some side pics when you get the opportunity, please?
Reason is I can't find the Achilles in 265/60/18 over here. I only found them in 265/70/18.
I might look for another brand.


Thanks.

What do pictures do you want?

 

Inspired by your setup I bought a set of 4 fatboy wheels and coated them in black. Looking good. Wating for the BFG K02 265/60/18 to complete the setup.
Thanks !
