I finally bit the bullet (quite a large caliber one, in fact) and bought myself a (3) set of Blackwell's![]()

Happy belated one man!
Happy birthday to me!!!!!!!! Well, it was actually the 24th, but whos counting? Ordered a set 2 wks ago, they were bronze colored, but were discontinued n the site said 2 sets in stock. Well, there wasnt... But thats ok, i love these more! They came in while i was out on a jobsite, boy was i in high gear to get back to the plant lol. They look sooooo much better in person. Theyve got red center caps, but i kinda like the black centers myself. I painted the hubs n drums with vht high temp flat black to hide the ugly lol. Here what they look like with the center caps. Then a before shot, n some after

Hey let me know how those tires wear. I’m trying to figure out what tires I want to go with for my F150. I really want a set of mud grapplers but my only worry is buying brand new tires and them wear faster than I’d like. I’ve been looking at gladiator X-comps as well, I love the look of em.
Oh yeah, and nice truck! I like the look of nice wheels on an imperfect truck.

First, skateboards had 4 wheels. Then they had 2 (Razor Ripstik). Now they have 1 (Onewheel). Think I'll stick with 4...tho, mine does go up to 40mi on a full charge, or up to 40mph. Interestingly enough, I thought about the Onewheel, for all of a few seconds...and, then, I remembered that my "internal balance" isn't what it used to be.Onewheel Gt
Nice wheel and tire combo! Changes the whole look of that old Ford!!
Happy late birthday! Looks like it was good one!!

Anyway, enjoy. I see more & more people riding them. Although I haven't (yet) gotten to join in on a group ride, I understand the number of Onewheels in the groups have increased (probably 50% Esk8s, 25% electric unicycles, and 25% Onewheels...at least in theSF Bay Area).

I agree. Have had many with 4 wheels, a ripstick with 2, and now this onewheel. I like to try things. Ridden a seatless bike yet? I dislike the small wheels most boards have, and eaten some serious shit hitting a small lip/rock
I snowboard, and have a couple of friends that have them. Fun to ride un-alone. I could care less for speed, my old ace will break a hip, but mu balance is spot on, even though.
Trailrunner Fire, Gatekeeper Builders Kit, 2.2 Mud grapplers, leaf spring set and a set of wide foams.

Since I'm practically a senior citizen, this is likely my last (it's about 36" w/Indys & 70mm wheels) - been skating since the mid '70s, ran a skate shop right after I got out of the military in the late '80s:
You could always get an AT Esk8...an electric longboard with 6" (or larger) pneumatic tires, designed specifically for off-road (ie. AT = All-Terrain, just like 1:1 off-road tires). Some, designed for extreme off-road, even have a spring suspension. If you have hard-packed dirt trails, you should check out the Ownboard Zeus (regular, or Pro).You’ve got a few more years than myself but I have always wanted a long board. No where to ride after moving to the woods but when we were in town there was.
