They look good Kirk. We talked about how those tires are worn out, but I meant to tell you, if you now hear a roaring noise like a bad bearing, it's the tires. They started making that noise when they cupped.

Thanks! No worries, I'm having my tires mounted on them tomorrow am. I just had to bolt them up to see how they looked. They did fine for the 2 miles to work.

I think I made your wife drop the wheelbarrow when I waved to her and she waved back as I left. Please give her my apologies.

She needed to drop it. She needs to push it off a cliff!

Great meeting you and doing business with you. I appreciate you coming all the way as you did, helped me a lot as I had a lot to get done.

BTW, my wife is still irritated that I sold those. If you decide you don't like them, just let me know.

Will do. They looked awfully nice laying up against your truck, I gotta say. Although, I change my mind, you gotta drive to me next time.

Probably the best wheels available for these trucks. I LOVE mine and they look great on your truck too! What tires are you going to run?

Looks good, and it also looks like your neighbor has an extremely tall covered parking area.
