Thanks, I am fighting the urge to get rid of these tires and wheels, and get some 30 or 31 10.50's...... it's hard to fight it!

I need some derned bumpers too, for jack points.. I have some significant rust on my inner bumpers, so going naked isn't really an option... hmmm decisions decisions..


So much for the $1000 trail beater..

Found a Skidplate (front) on Ebay, for 91, local. .going to pick it up tomorrow.


Thanks for all the help guys.. going to keep doing stuff to the Tracker, as long as money allows...... LOL

Yeah, black wheels are a MUST... If I can't decide which ones.. I will paint these aluminum things, till I do.

I am thinking hard about running 31x10.50's on 15x8's..........   But can't quite decide which tire...

To be honest, I am tempted to Bogger the back, and Swamper the front....  Have seen rigs like that climb some serious stuff...  (if I do that, I won't do much street driving.....lol)

When I saw your after pics I thought at first I was looking at my Tracker!  What brand and color of paint did you paint it with?  Keep a can in the truck when you start taking the top off.  I find that where the top goes over the targa bar it scratches the paint off.  Also why did you decide to leave the bumpers black?  You should bring it to Zukifest at the Badlands next July.  We can get some pics of the twins!

Keith, I hate to be a copy cat.. but your Trackick was the main reason I choose it.

It is Krylon Ultra Flat Camoflage paint... (I think, I neec to look at the can!)

I used the black Hammerite on the wheels today.. looks MUCH better.

I decided to keep the bumpers black mostly because I am planning on removing them.. and I knew they would get all scratched easily anyway...  LOL...


I am DEFINATELY going to be a Zukimelt...   it's only a couple of hours from here.

I used Rustoleum Camo paint.  It is around $3 a can.  Is the Krylon cheaper?

Sorry, my last name is not Meyer.

I don't remember how much it was.. I just saw that they had 6 cans on the shelf, so I grabbed them.. I think it was a bit higher than 3, but probably not over 4.... LOL, all I know is a $25 paintjob is JUST RIGHT....   LOL..


I painted the stock aluminum wheels with the dark grey Hammerite last night... so I wouldn't be tempted to spend ANOTHER hunk of money today... looks great!  Will post pics later...

I think you'll be surpised how well the tires you have do.  I have similiar M/T and they do great offroad.  Just noisy as heck onroad.
