This is a thread where the members can show off their other rig, what they pull their boats with... After your pic is up on the site, you can give us the full details of your rig... Once we get enough pics, we'll have a few rounds of votes to see who has the best and baddest rig out there... To get your pic uploaded, you could e-mail it to Chris and he'l get it up here. For all you don't know, his e-mail is Chris@Checkmate-Boats.com if J am not mistaken... I'll get a few pics of my truck up first to start things off...

A set of American Racing mags would go good on that... I have a set on my new 2002 Chevy Avalanche... While Chris get's my truck pics up, I'll post a pic of my rims...

Checkmates may not be the fastest boats on the water, but they are the nicest looking!
 
This rim is the American Racing one called "Slider" I got the 17' ones to go with the existing tires. I also have a Venture van with Eagle Alloy mags on it and I used to have a Surburban with American Racings on it as well. As you can tell, all my vehicles have to been my own with my own personal touch. Also, it was scary when I was reading Truck Trend and I saw the same truck as mine with the exact same mags on it. I guessed I had a good taste...

Hey Z, good choice of color!
Gus, looks in great shape for 15 yrs old, I had a friend who had one of those, beat the crap out of it and it just asked for more!
 
6 months of looking to find one that wasent beat up, or the owner thought it was made of gold.

They are hard to kill. I will have to get a picture of my buddies ramcharger. Down here in south GA the american pass time is fishing or mud bogging. So we built a bogger, runs in stock class. 440cid 7" of lift and 38.5 18's It's a hoss

Thanks Bill, yours looks great too! I got mine December of 2001 and it's been running fine ever since with nothing wrong with it... Here are the details...
2002 Chevy Avalanche
Z66 On-Road Package as I don't go off-road)
285 horsepower Vortec 5300 V8 engine, I could have got the 345 but I didnt anyways...
17' American Racing "Slider" rims...

Avalanche features the Convert-a-Cab system that lets you change it from a premium, 6-passenger SUV to a full-size pickup in less than a minute, without tools. And an innovative first-of-its-kind Midgate™ — positioned between the rear seats and pickup box — means you can configure Avalanche for maximum cargo room or maximum passenger space. It's the ultimate utility vehicle.

Thanks Z I bought mine Oct of 2001 and it has been great although I only have 16,000 miles so far. I just discovered I have a bad right front shock already and GM won't replace it. I am ALWAYS looking for ways to upgrade her too!.
 
Why don't you just get a kit that lowers and heightens your truck on demand, with you at the controlls... Now that would be sweet... A good site for rims is the American Racing
