maybe you couldnt of got enough tire on the deal but I think they make 45-50 series tires for 20. They make offroad 20's and tires now too. 1300 seems a little high but not to bad. Nice looking though I am not gonna hate there. You have a super charger also? That would be sick.

$1300 isnt bad...considering how you can easily pay $150 - $250 a tire, and up to $800 a rim.

No I couldnt get enough sidewall height to fit under the truck without rubbing the fenderwells . Not that i couldnt find a tire tall enough theres plenty tall enough . You go and try to find wheels for a dakota with 6 lug on 4.5" bolt pattern theres not many options out there since the Viper and Dakota are the only 2 vehicles that uses that bolt pattern . Theres not many wheels that fit and the ones that do are for the most part ugly or very very expensive , I thougt for $1300 wheels and tires NEW was cheap as hell ! Were not talking wheels for a Honda here ! Plus I got good tires and Quality Wheels

yeah I just look in the lowrider magazine alot and see that the price of 20's has came down. Now you can get a nice set with about 45 series tires for 1500. My dad has 20's with 40 series rubber and they are about 250 a tire

Rims and tires is what kills you when venturing out to build a custom ride...well, so does everything else, but those seem to add to the price really quick.

Yes sir how did you know. About every 20 inch wheel I see has those. Maybe if I get a digital camera I will post pics.

When you said the price is when I knew what tires you had . They are a good deal for 20's . These are gy's cheapest tires .. if you want tires that actually have traction and dont wear out in 20,000 miles you have to spend a bit more on them ..

I could understand that. What kind of wheels are they? I know my dad has a little bit of trouble with getting them balanced just right. He said he was gonna get them balanced on the truck. He has lexani krystals by the way. Do you have any trouble with balancing them?
