Here is the progression of my X over the past almost 7 years. I thought I was going to sell it back in the Fall so I stripped some things off of it. Going back now and trying to set it back up again to a certain extent. I don't have near as much time or money to offroad as I did in the past.

MTR's on Stock Xterra Rims. The Rock Crawler Rims stock out too far with the MTR's.

Painted the rims dark grey and went to Moab. Sadly one of the MTR's got thrown out of balance and got torn up on the long drive back to Texas.

dude you have 5 different sets of rims in your pictures whats up with that...

but it looks good. i really like the last one.

lovn the x !

Thanks!

hah, yeah, I know. I kept finding good deals on cheap wheels and thought, what the heck! I finally got the DR wheels by a fluke coincidence. I've always loved the way they looked and they will be the last wheels I buy for it. If anyone in the East Texas-ish area wants a deal on some wheels I still have most of the one pictured above. :icon_wink:

These are going on next...

just tighten the nuts until they are snug

To be honest there's actually an "8th" set that I couldn't find a picture of. hah. yeah... It's a little disturbing.


Alright, thanks Brian. That may be what I end up doing, at least for the time being. I had read about tightening them back to factory specs on a few threads.

looks great!

just dont overtighten them to where the nut to where it digs into the bushings

i'm from tyler, i dont need any rims but if you ever want to get muddy i might be up for it.

Wow, that's a whole lot of tire swapping!
Great looking X, though.
I like the Black Rocks painted the best, I think.

The question is, does each set of rims have it's own dedicated set of tires. :D

CISO

hah, NOPE! Rims are cheap, tires are NOT!

Got the rear Bilsteins installed this morning! The install was fairly easy. I just took the spare out.

Apparently I bent one of the washers on one of the bottom mounts. That was a little bit of a pain to get of but not bad. Compare the old crappy used ones I bought probably 6 years ago to the new!

Of course there is no comparison!

I pushed in on the old shocks and they wouldn't even push back out!

I can definitely tell a difference in the ride. How could I not?? I hope to get the front shocks replaced sometime soon.
