So I found 22" Boss 313s in DFW and he wants a staight trade for my wheels. There are two things that make me hesitate...

1. I'll have to pull my tpms out because his truck is an '04 so he doesn't have any...not a big deal, just an extra $80.
2. He says the tires are a little rough because the truck's camber isn't perfect. I've had tires that make noise because of excessive camber wear before and I just stuck them on the back so it was less noticable and they started to even out. I asked him for a pic to see how bad they are and I'll post the pic when I get it.

Would you do it?

Only if I really loved the wheels and it was an upgrade. I wouldnt side step for them.

How good are your tires? If they're in the same shape or close to it then it sounds like a good deal. If the tires on the 22's are crap then I wouldn't be to sure

With those tires, I say no. Unless you want to drop $800+ on new rubber...

I try not to smoke too much rubber off my tires. They wear down fast enough from just driving, don't need to accelerate that process...

Man I'm really bummed about the wheels but I'll find something one day...still praying for SRTs. The part that kills me is that I could sell my old bike and get SRTs, tires, and still have some money left over...but that just won't happen.

Boss wheels aren't even expensive....just save up! Your stock rims are worth more than a set of Boss'
