    Make a plan and buy everything once. Dont go cheap and have to redo stuff later...the cost ends up far higher that way

    2006 Trailblazer

    Some new work on the rig. Stripped off the roof rack and rear bumper swings for a re-do of configuration and powdercoating. Also played with one of the front grills and made it white for awhile. Need to pull off white strip on windshield and go back to regular tint ASAP as well. Also put...

    Tire type, rim sizes and such...

    I have the best luck on discount tire direct due to them: coming mounted and balanced, shipping for free, and offering huge sales/discounts around the holidays. Esp if you use their credit card and then just pay it at first bill. No interest and bigger money back typically. I know they carry...

    Are wheel spacers worth buying

    Been running 1.5 inch spacer/adapters for 75K miles with no issues. Was the only way I could get a common lug pattern rather than the oddball the truck came with. I actually just put some 1 inch on the Trans Am since I could not find the offset I wanted.

    Doubt you gain much with the change from 20 to 18s. Right now you already have the 20s, so unless you think you can sell them for more than the 18s I would seriously consider keeping them. Plus it seems 20 is a more common size than 18 if you need a spare at some point 500 miles form home...
