Greetings from another 400k+ owner! Yours is way cleaner than mine!

Those wheels look great, did I miss the brand/model name?

Theyre Black Rhino Sprocket, in 18x9 with +18 offset
 
Ended up taking a road trip out west to visit some friends....I get laid off in the winter so figured why not before I start to plow snow. Cruiser passed 428k. Went over to Colorado and hit misc places I was shown and found over my travels. Camped a night in Kansas where it got to 28 degrees...talk about cold, so I thought. Made it to CO and visited in friends in both CO Springs, Denver, & Fort Co. Bounced in the mountains along my way. Went up to Estes and found a AWESOME cabin at 9500ft on AIRBnB. It claimed to have heat and since they were claiming single digits temps that night, I went for it. The heater was a propane bottle with a heater head....Yeah. It worked, but was a little sketchy. Got to unexpectedly meet @willbt after hitting him up on Craigslist to get some 100 series tow points. Safe to say I want to put 35s on the LC.

Monument Rock in Kansas. Seriously, the only thing worth while I have come across in my many passes of Kansas.

First things first. @WanderingFZJ, the pup, the ole cruiser, & I had never been to the TOP of Pikes Peak. I have tried 3 times in different vehicles and it has been snowed in. Fixed that. The dog hated the wind....I dont blame him. It was blowing at 50mph and they were more than likely going to shut down the mountain, the lady at the bottom said.

Found what appeared to be a frozen pond. Figured since the dog couldn't pee at the top without it hitting him in the face, this was the next best option. To my surprise, he didn't pee. Just wanted to go play on the ice & snow...LOL. To be continued....

Its private property, but open to the public. 10-15 miles down some oil service roads. Was around 2-3hr detour off of i70. Worth it just to say you've seen the one cool thing in Kansas LOL
 
Beautiful Cruiser! Your pics have inspired me to look at the Black Rhino website.
I found the list of sizes available for the "Sprocket" model and in the 18x9.5 they only show an offset of +6 available. Is it possible you have a discontinued size or do you think you might actually have the +6? Also they don't show the Sprocket available in 18x9, only 9.5 so I'm guessing maybe they don't make your exact model anymore.

Hmm. I'm going off of what I was told when I purchased them from @Chitown4x4 but these were ordered for a gen 2 tundra according to them. I just liked how they looked. Aside from that I don't know much else about them.


**edit after looking into it they do have to be 9.5 wide and +6. yes they rub a little

Was able to set the camera up, & get some steak going. Did I need to cook it on a axe? No...There was pans inside. Did I want to? Yup, and it tasted amazing! Temps ended up getting down to 8 degrees. Glad the campfire was going!! Some Hot cocoa with Jack Daniels finished off the night.

Jeeze dude, these photos are magazine worthy. Absolutely amazing shots.

Here's the photo I took of your cruiser, haha. I'm still blown away by the mileage and how good of shape it was in. Makes me look forward to the next 200k in my truck.

Wish we could have gone out and I could have got some shots of yours!! Next time we will have to go run something. Hopefully I'll have the skids and sliders by then also. It was dark when you saw it, its got its little spots here and there. But nothing to serious. Sort of debating on getting the small things fixed....lol. Shoot me your address in the message. I got that other badge btw. Magazine quality would be amazing! A couple did make it onto Black Rhinos page which is cool!Sprocket Truck Rims by Black Rhino

So what are you shooting with? I am trying to determine what my next DSLR will be and the images you are putting out are amazing!

Im actually using a Sony A6000 and the kit 16-50mm lens, as well as a 18-105mm. I cant say enough good things about this camera. I don't know alot about cameras or photography for that matter. I just like it alot as a hobby. I do plan on getting a full size sony camera in the future though.
 
I've been slacking on updating, its a pain when all your photos are to "big" for the forum and I have to go back and resave smaller copies for here. Trucks been running good. Just took it to Silver Lake Sand Dunes in Michigan and hit 430k.

Great pics! And yes that steak needed to be cooked in the axe. Lol

I made burgers on ripped up beer cans. :)

That Ironman bumper looks nice.
