Sue,
Which wheels are you going to put them on? How did the putty hold up on the chipped wheel?
Those tires look sweet, leave it to Riffraff to find some unique hidden tire out there...

I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

OEMs, not getting new wheels right now ($$).
The MightyPutty held onto the rim most of the day on Wed. I tried to take any rocks on the left so that right front wouldn't be as stressed, especially air downed like it was to 18 psi. Those lip edges were sharp! It finally fell off shortly before we finished Hell's Revenge, but THANK YOU for thinking that up, I'm sure it helped the sidewall not get sliced wide open.
That big missing lip chunk was just too severe for me so I met up with "circmand" on Sunday in some podunk little town in Northern AZ and bought one of his used 18" OEM rims. Now the chipped lip rim will be retired to the shed (and one day maybe used as a full size spare). I'm thinking I may buy another OEM rim from circmand in a while. His remaining ones had road rash on the rim, but still would be a great backup.

Get those OEM's powdercoated (or painted) flat black and they will look sweet!

Yes Billy, with that Foxfire Red Mica, you might be right. Damn that was a sweet ride Sue had. My second choice, tide with the Proton, but I love my Dragon. Just have to rub out that Cowboy pinstrip I got at Moab on my new paint job.Originally Posted by Triathlete

Chipped rims also make a real nice place to store your garden hose...
Just bolt it to the wall of the shed, & voila!
