Well I had accidently postd this in the wrong section (NNBS).

Well, was in need of some new rubber, and came across these 18" Cadi wheels with brand new rubber, the rims and tires are a factory pull off with less then 200km on them, got them for 1100$ CDN

Thank you. I couldnt pass them up. They are mint. And good price IMO. It was between those in chrome, or the brushed look. I think these suited my truck better.

lmao.. ha ha ... OH yeah we bundle up good. If its not 80 plus all the time, well i cant handle the cold, we bundle up. But now temps of 110 or so, i do fine. Just hot... Others act like thier dying.. Guy came from michigan or something the other day to my job and was sweating like crazy.. it was only 75 i think. lol

Its funny how we all get used to our locations and if we go somewhere else we are outcasts. lol..

Nice man, there pretty awesome for winter, and good if you ever sell the truck, better then stock IMO.

Mann if I was in 110... I would most likely die, or have serious heat stroke.. I love the heaat but that is just to hot.. What is that in C ? I cant remember the F - C ratio. Either if I can cook on the side walk.. Thats to hot hahah. I would need one big ass cooler full of non stop beer. Wouldnt help the heat stroke but it would make me a believer!! haha

ha ha ha... see what i mean.. ha ha.. I dont know the f -c thing either. i just look at the temps. lol.. Yeah, you can cook eggs some summers on the sidewalk. the beer yeah, and lots lots of ice.

But to go back on topic, ha ha... what rims do you normally have on it. Summer rims i guess.

This is my winter setup. We've got a good amount snow here now, too. Hahaha.

And I have to agree, I'd die in 110 degrees. 90 is my too damn hot limit....lol.

Your in alaska.. Your even further than him.. lmao.. What is a normal temp there? From what i know/ its just cold 24/7.. ha ha ...

and yeah, our summers are getting hotter and hotter, this year was like 110 heat index/ here for like a straight week, no clouds nothing, and we have like 100% humidity, so it can be 80 but feel like 110 and trust me it feels like 100 plus. and for the heat strokes, yep, sorry to say, but at least a few folks die every year from it.

but on a positive note, only need one set of rims.. i guess thats positive.

HAHAHA... Well I will be working damn near the North West Terrotiers for some time.. SOO on that note... hahah

Well I have yet to buy any summer wheels.. Since I have had to use my truck to go to work and back.. 24"s would not be ideal at all.. But next summer I will have a set for sure, and wont have to drive my truck to work.. GF drop me off at the airport and ill fly in.. I dont know what I will get. I realllllly like the U2 55 but they are well over played, even down here now... There cheap to buy, look nice. But I see them on every truck here.. I like to have something different, something not everyone goes "yeah my buddy has those, there sick" so have to find my self a happy meedium.

I wouldnt mind finding like what you got (i think ss) but in 24"s that would be sick

I have sooooo much stuff that I want to do. And if I can find the parts I am after, I will get those before the wheels for sure. But I mean I want to do alot

Yeah you sound just like me, i like the u2's, but everyone has them. I want something not everyone has. I like the dub homies 2, i think thats what they are. Seen a few on here, but not in person. Really like em. Only 22's though.

For my SS rims, i have the stock chrome 20's off a SS truck. My sig pic is photoshoped on some 24's i guess. They look really good that big, if only i could find some i would slap those on in a heartbeat, but can only find 22's. But not sure what they look like on. I think a member has them, cant remember who though. Even thought about some 22' escalade rims.. I dont know, would like alot, but money says no. What all you got planned, i see you got the denali console in. Looks good. (that was you right?) ha lol and being nosy, looking through the threads, what did you do w/ those rims that came on your Yuk. Those looked good.

and this is all out of fun, stereotype i guess, but you dont say EH? LMAO...
( i mean no harm at ALL on that, just why do they say that, is it a french thing) its just funny, i guess kind of like how we say Ya'll. lol...:cheers:

What all do I want do do EH, (hahahah)

Lots man. Yeah that was me with the center console. I had a 99 how w/22s but 5x5 bolt. I dont like to reuse wheels from previous builds. Like something more fresh and new.

HD Hood
LED turns
Smoked head lights
04-06 sierra front end conversion (wanted to do this since january)
re-tint my windows (illegal here to have tint on front windows)
3.5/5.5 DJM drop (from a member here on site that sells the kits)
stereo with 4 10's (have the room, and like to boom i guess..)
roll pan
esky shift colom
esky gauge cluster
esky door handles (not installed yet)
esky roof rack
esky running boards
esky rear window w/3rd brake light
esky rear side vents
esky roof vents (interior ones)
denali door handles (interior)
denali trim on power locks/window controls
trying to come up with some ideas for some more interior might do escalade seats and might look into rear esky captains
24"s
6.0l with blower power train up grade to handle power (havent looked into it yet)
exterior paint (same color maybe a bit of pearl) again havent put much thought into that
re-do all my LEDs with brighter LEDs and do all the dash lights (all white)

Theres probably alot ive missed..

Right now for my audio Im running diamond audio comps that just scream in all 4 doors (4 6" mids 4 1" tweats) with a hifonics amp. Ill do my subs when im home, diamond audio d2.3 (2 12") there pretty loud, pretty impressed (had in my 99 hoe) with a alpine mrv-1500 (i think? its digital and puts out)

All in all.. I cant through all my paycheques in at once, though it would all get done real quick.. Lots will go on after winter, wait till the salt and rocks are cleaned up.

First, i just laughed my ass off... EH... lmao.... ha hah ah.. i dont know why thats just funny... (seriously not being mean) ha ha

But man thats a list you go going on there.. Thought mine was long.
Whats different about the sierra front end? the bumper? idk
Sounds like you need to buy a wrecked escalade and get the pieces you need and then sell it.

Honestly not really off topic, i think we lost that a while back ago. lol.
But 3" of snow already, oh thats right, theres a front coming from up north, its going to be 65 this week here in houston. For probly 2 days... then back to 80 next week.

hahah yeahh.. what can i say eh.. (all good man)
The list is long yes.. but it all comes together in pieces (duh) but in time.
The grille is a bit different, the bumper is completly different, round fogs, chrome top peices more contour to the grille, i think its a classier look and much cleaner. plus bottom valance can be paint matched (yes so can the ones we have now, but looks cleaner)
