I’m in Ohio visiting a buddy and my wife sends me thiswent with Kings with the adjustable reservoir. Next month should be the High Clearance Long Arm Kit
followed by wheels and tires, steering components, install of everything. Might take me a couple months but feels good to finally get this build started. IMG_3112.jpg

Originally I was gonna buy the Evo Long Arm Kit this month, long story short I spent more than I planned on our family vacation so LA kits has to wait till next month. But I can still buy tires which is what I’m gonna do. Decided on Cooper STT Pro 37x13.50R17. This brought me to look more into wheels. I’ve been looking at running KMC XD229s but a buddy of mine brought up Hutchinson’s Rock Monster. Wanted to see if anyone had run them before or know of someone and what they though of the wheel. They’re a two-piece design with an internal beadlock insert that clamps both inner and outer tire beads from what I’ve been reading. They do bring up that they’re a DOT approved beadlock, but don’t care for that. Only about $10-20 price difference between both wheels. A couple specs on each wheel.

I can't stand those bolts on the Rock Monsters. Mind you I have no personal experience, but then again I don't want any either.
Those KMC Machetes sure are hard to beat aesthetically. They just look so clean.Originally Posted by doubletapdaddy
