or can someone tell me for sure where i can get some wheels for the king, at this point i dont care if there are alun or steel. One placee took my order after jammin the blackwater down my neck. and told me they where on there way, I called back 3 days later for the tracking # and then i was told that they dont make the alum wheel for the front of the king,,, now why would someone make a wheel for just the rear of a quad??? Im callin national tire and wheel today and goin to see what they can come up with.

Ecorman is running Douglas on his. You can get them directly from Douglas at Douglaswheel.com. They also do custom wheels so they should be able to help you out.

Rob, I'm not on this thing every nite due to arrangements around my "wife's" house...
But make no mistake, I am the boss around here--sometimes...
I got my wheels from Highlifter and tires from Rocky Mountain. You may be able to get a better deal but shop and ask questions. Use a reputable supplier unless you know someone at home that you can trust. Both the above, are on the net by logging on the name, add (.com).
Oh, I can use this thing over the weekend... :0)

Well after calling ITP directly I made up my mind and got the vamps with the crome and black wheel for national tire and wheel. Since I spend most of my time in the mud I feel Ive made a good choice. And since Ill still have the stock tires and wheels I can always go back to them in the summer while the mud isnt so deep. Ill lat you guys know how this machine does in the mud. Thnx again Chuck for all you help.

That's a good choice Rob. Bill Ciliberti's brother has a set of Vamps on his King Quad. He likes them a lot. Have not had the opertunity to go out yet so I can't tell you any thing about the tires I've purchased. Too darn cold this winter for me to go out and enjoy. Gonna stay home and watch the 500 today. It's supposed to be 80 degrees there in Daytona... Make me sick... Be sure to take some pics to show.

No more than I was upset about Ward Burton. I thought all along he could pull off a win if Elliott, didn't come thru. Good race and glad nobody got seriously hurt.
Surprised nobody here has said anything about the Suzuki commercials during the race week. I think what they were showing was a 500 Quad Runner.

No, I didn't know and I apologize about that folks. I went outside immediately after the race. We will all miss a very good driver and a nice human being.
