Trying to decide between 20x12 wheels with -44mm offset or 20x10 with -24mm offset

 

Tires are gonna be 37x13.5r20 Toyo Open Country M/T

That's what's available for the wheels I want (XD Diesels, Chrome). I have -12 now, my last wheels were -22 I just don't know if the 20x10 would fit a 13.5 wide tire without bulging a whole bunch

Yeah I would never go even - offset on mine. Drive a lot of gravel and I like what's left of my paint too much. Could always get a narrower 37

I plan on getting body work and a nice paint job this year, maybe. If I do, I will get some of those flares that looks like their bolted on. Will look good with a new paint job

I ssid something yesterday that because of my upbringing I should have never said. I told my mom "I'm happy with the performance of my truck. I think I am just going to concentrate on the interior"

Too much medicine...

I was raised ariund hot rods and muscle cars. But I am happy with the way it runs. I have to focus my budget elsewhere since in 3 weeks I will have my own place

Which Pioneer? 140w per channel seems too high. Might check the ohms and more than one channel ratings. Usually that 140 is when the system drives only one channel at a specific resistance. You hook up all 5 and your actually running about 70 watts a channel on a lot of 5.1s.

 

Don't feel bad, basically every retail store markets them that way best Buy even markets a specific Pioneer at like 11-- watts because its rated at 160 watts a channel.....A channel as in a single channel, their idiot who did the specs write up did 160 times 7.

 

The manufacturers themselves a more truthful ...how much depends on the manufacture. Some you have to dig around for the true specs.

 

I'm running 9 Polks. 7 speakers and two PSW505 watt sub's. On an Onkyo RC-HT270. Probably getting a new receiver this year when the new ones with HDMI 2.0 release. Pioneer is top of the list, due to their new tech and most HDMI inputs, unless Yamaha can match inputs.

 

Jurassic Park 1, when the T Rex roars......Epic.

I'm happy with how Pioneer fixed it for free. I don't remember the model, just the ~$300 model with 4k pass through. I really like the remote layout.

 

Really happy with the Polk speakers. They sound great, lots better than the Bose of the same price. I really like the remaining Boston speakers but I'll probably get something a little more substantial for a center channel eventually, probably Polk.

Saw a new Suburban today. Looks WAY better in person than the photos show it I feel. Surprised that it didn't have manufacturer plates, wonder who is getting to bomb around in a new rig like that. Also saw a new style Denali HD without M plates. Looks very nice, just as I expected though since it photographs well.
