Yea that would fly alright. My work truck is a white 1984 Ford 4x4 with green algae growing on it, but I'm not using up my fuel anymore, especially at $3.70 a gal.[:@]

I think the DRZ SM is a damn fine looking machine, a bit out of my price range when I got the KLX and more than likely too much bike/hooliganism for a first time rider. Thus far the KLX has kept me alive even when I've done something really stupid, and heck, I couldn't have gone to NJ and ridden with a bunch of you fellas on a DRZ SM, at least not in that sand!

My "sportsman" SM setup for the KLX cost me $130 for tires, $375 for GreenKLX's wheel set, and I have yet to purchase tubes for the offroad tires (AC-10's) and I have to say that it adds a whole new dimension of fun to the KLX. If bigK were to import the D-Tracker I think it would sell pretty well, depending on how much more expensive it is than the DS model.

Dude, the 33's were $980.00, I'm not a millionaire. And yes the 35's would look great. OK let's start a buy deej 35's for the dodge fund. I'll start with $20.00 just to get the ball rolling. come on guys.
damn dude- that's high. when I had my '04 Dodge, I got a set of 305/70-17's which are 35" tires on ebay for like $670 shipped. They were awesome but gas got me and I traded it.

305/70-17 is a 34.8" tire. I researched this for days on end before buying. You guys are getting hosed on your tire prices. There's a place on ebay down in Alabama or somewhere that I bought mine off of. Very good to deal with and their prices include shipping. I'll see if I can post up a pic of my Ram w/the tires. Here's a shot from the front that I just had to share.

here's a shot from the side. this was a 1500 Ram w/Hemi. Realize that the Power Wagon only comes with 285's on it stock, a 33" tire. But that truck is one bad machine. Mine was basically all looks as it was a loaded truck w/leather and Infinity, but I bought the off-road pkg. Dodge 17" wheels off ebay, the off-road decals and the fog lights off ebay as well. Oh yeah, the little Ram head on the tailgate came oem on '05's so I got one of them as well since my truck was an '04. I miss this truck, but with crude about to hit $100/barrel, I'm glad it's gone.
