restored pristine Speedline 1908 Rims (18" X 8.5" with the
10mm Offset required by the Explorer) which were originally installed
on a Saleen XP8 Ford Explorer. The rims have been restored and
professionally powder coated by an outfit out in Southern California
and I''m looking to install them on my truck sometime within the next
couple weeks.

I decided to go ahead and try the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season
Plus tires in 255/55R18 109H or 109V (haven't decided yet) This tire
looks as it might be better than the Scorpion S/T - I'll update here
my thoughts later on.

As some of you might have read in one of
my previous threads elsewhere, I had a front and rear swaybar from
another XP8 I purchased years ago. I sold the front bar since I
couldn't use it on my 94 Limited and I recently had the rear bar
powder coated and installed on my 2000 Limited. I also just had the
rear lowering blocks from XP8 2000-0023 powder coated and read for
installation when the truck is lowered while the wheels and tires are
installed.
Also received my tires from Tirerack
