Thank you for actually supporting me. I was beginning to think that all you guys would have me burn at the stake for wanting some flashy rims. Also thank you for the info on the wheel fitment and your advice on towing. A tranny cooler was already one of the things I have on my list of installs before getting registered. Yep, you read my mind. What you said is pretty much what I had in mind for my pathy (A rugged/street look) until I was offered my friends set of Silverado rims, then I thought hey why spend so much on all that when I can have these for free? So I decided to go this rought instead. And besides that Oilman is more then right, with only one set of rims/tires like that I might be lookin good on the street but I'll be getting laughed off the trails. Not to mention that I really would have them rock rashed in no time.

Oh no, If I weren’t getting the tires as well, I wouldn’t have even asked for the rims. 20" tires are too expensive for me to even bother with for as little as I plan to use these.
-
Hahaha, that is hilarious, what a funny guy! Who wouldn’t want a room mate like that? :cool2:

The rims that my buddy is handing down to me are stock off of his Silverado. I'm unsure of the size of the tire but their not so low pro I figure I might actually need a bit of a lift to fit them anyway.
-
Yep, I was pushing down. Is that a bad thing? I can't check the Manuel because I don't have one and I would go and check the visor myself right now except for the fact that my pathy is over in buddy’s garage. Would you mind telling me what it says?

I don't know about you, but luckily I've never met anybody dumb enough to hold the opinion you stated above. Who would even want to take their 20's off road and get them scratched up and dented to hell? Let alone believe that they would not hinder off road capability whatsoever? You seem to have quoted me without even reading my post. If you read it you would have realized that I will be lifting my truck and getting 31X10.5's for off roading and have no intentions of using the 20's for anything other then Sunday night cruzin. BTW :cool2: videos! Do you plan on making any more? I also liked your choice in music for the videos. Would you mind telling me who they are? I didn’t recognize them.

If you want good loud base but your still after clarity I would defiantly have to recommend going with a pair of Kappa series subs from Infinity. Alpines Type S series also hits hard while keeping the response real tight. If you’re on a bit of a budget, see if you can find any retailers that sell MA Audio. Or just buy some stolen equipment, that’s always one way to get a good system without spending a bunch.

As long as we're on the topic of transfer cases here, I may as well explain the problem with mine. As you may or may not know yet I've just recently picked up a wrecked 1990 XE. Anyway I haven’t had a look at it yet but my transfer case is REALLY hard to shift, it’s stuck something awful. As far as I can tell there was no damage done to any of the drive components just some body damage, and when I drove the pathy briefly there were no unusual sounds from the transfer case. So I am wondering why is it so stuck? I know it sat around for nearly 2 years now. Could this have something to do with it?
-
So you didn't have to modify the rims in any way to get them to fit? BTW what’s wrong with slapping on some 20's to go Sunday night cruzen? It may not be your cup of tea but I love to head out on Sunday nights and cruze the strip rollin on 20+ inches of glistening chrome. There's no doubt about it, flashy rims get's the girls’ attention every time. Although your probably not all the interested in picking chicks up since you are one. Don't get me wrong here I love getting out on those trails and mudding it up too! As for myself I like the off roading look better, but unfortunately it’s not so fly with the ladies.

There is no relevant connection between this guy being a moron and the fact that he drives a jeep. Why are people on this forum always bashing and hating on JEEP'S and their owners? Bash morons and half wits all you want, but leave the JEEP'S out of it.

I jsut got my bike stolen last summer, and now I'm looking for areplacement for this summer coming up. Do you guys have any sugestions for a decent bike under $1000. BTW I don't care much for hardtail's.

Hey, thanks to everybody for your comments on towing capacity. I was kind of worried that my pathy wasn’t going to be able to tow worth a darn since its only got a 3.0 liter but hearing your story Mr. Pickles ahs inspired some confidence in me as I recall my friend with a 94 V8 JGC telling me a story with very similar circumstance only in his story, his jeep was struggling terribly and sucking back the gas as if it were a freight liner. Now as for your questions about my truck, nope, I don't have any pictures just yet, but you can look forward to seeing some within the next few days.

LOL, congratulations on your post count, and thank you for the warm welcome. You’re defiantly right, buying rims that would already fit my finder would be the simpler choice, but the thing is I wasn’t planning on paying for them. Here's the deal my buddy is ditching his stock 20"s for some 22"s and since our bolt pattern's are the same he promised them to me after he makes the switch. So I'm not going to argue with the prospect of free rims. I know what you’re talking about saying that I would have to enlarge them to get them to fit over my hubs. A few years back this same buddy and I attempted to mill out a set of protégé rims he purchased for his 95 SC2. What a nightmare that was, since all we had available to do the milling was a cordless drill. -thnkboutit- We eventually gave up and returned the rims and got his money back, thankfully that guy never even noticed what we had done. Lol Anyway do you have any suggestions on a better way to mill out the rims to get them to fit?

Hello everybody, I just joined your forum yesterday as of buying myself a wrecked 1990 pathy from a salvage auction. I've got a couple questions and I was wondering if any of you could help me out here. 1. I’ve been checking bolt patters for my truck to see what sort of rims I could fit on my ride and I realized that lots of GM's have the same 6x139.7 bolt pattern. I just wanted to know if any of you have tried fitting a pair of GM rims onto your pathfinders and weather or not this is a possibility. (I really want to slap on a set of 20"s that come with the newer Silverado SS. BTW yes I'm aware this is an off roading forum and yes I indeed plan to lift my truck and throw on some 31x10.5's and take her path finding on a regular basis, the 20" will just be for Sunday night cruzen. 2. I picked up a class 3 tow hitch for my rig to tow around a small trailer, I think I read someplace that the towing capacity of my truck is 3300lbs correct me if I'm wrong here. Anyway I was wondering what if I wanted to tow my buddy’s boat around? (Its about 4500lbs with the trailer) what could be some of the ramifications if I were to tow that baby up to the lake? I hear guys say all the time that the rating on your tow capacity is only what your manufacturer "Suggests" your truck can always tow more. Is this true? And would my pathy be capable of towing such a load? Thank you for reading my unbearably long post. :type: Kyle
