[StrobinAvalanche]

I got a black spare and I noticed that AvaLance has a silver one does anyone know why there are different one's? ? ?

Mine:

Lance's:

 

[AvaLance]

I also noticed that most of the 2003's have the black

 

[StrobinAvalanche]

But We Both Have 2002's and are both Z71's

 

[AvaLance]

hehe we sure do, and like you pointed out you have the black wheel with rear tinted windows and I have the silver wheel without rear tinted windows (but I now have tinted)

SA... why the photoshop paint job on your av?

Hey I also noticed that Lance got the clean 2002 and you picked the dirty one.

SKIDD I got a cheap *** camera I didn't photoshop it, it sucks in the sunlight on my white. ?My AV is clean but I didn't clean the spare.

LOL... sorry about that, I thought you PS'd it to make it look clean... BTW can you resize the images so they don't alter the page width. ?

No Prob I'll Do That Right Now . . . Why Do You Have To Be So "Un-Usual" LOL

It's got to do with where I live.... or maybe it's the time zone I'm in.

I got the black one too, know that my Av came as a non-Z71 4x4. Maybe it's a build date thing, I have 6/02 build date. The spare came with a FS Wilderness LE mounted, same tire as on the 4 wheels as delvidered.

Now it has Z71 rims in all five spots, with the same MT/Rs all around too. (anyone wanna buy 4 16" rims and one black spare 16" rim, all with new tires?)

 

[chevroletavalanche]

That is kind of strange. You both have a Z71 White Avalanche. You both got a flat on the same tire.

Kind of strange in my opinion.

We need more votes on this one....11 is just not enough

Black with a Bridgstone.

 

[OldVMer]

I've got a black rim for the spare on my 03 Z71 born 2/03

I think my '03 spare is black w/ Bridgestone Dueller tire. Seems standard for the '03's? Seems there was more variation in the '02's (firestone, goodyear, etc.)

SPEAKING OF THE SPARE TIRE , I WAS INSTALLING SOME REAR FACING LIGHTS ON MY AV YESYERDAY TO HELP ME SEE BETTER WHEN I AM BACKING UP AND I NEEDED SOME MORE ROOM TO DRILL THE HOLES STRAIGHT , TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT , I COULDN'T GET THE SPARE TO DROP.
I FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS OR AT LEAST I THOUGHT I DID.
SO WHICH END GOES IN FIRST, THE SQUARE END OR THE FLAT END
Hey stop laughing and just answer the question !!!!!! teee heeee heee
P.S. I did get the lights installed and I am amazed at the difference they make.
can't wait to do my next mod.

BB,


Ask AVY_FLUKE

It Took us way too long to get his down Its the LARGEST SQUARE one - ( The One Nobody takes out of the Bag )


BTW - Everyone Get those Nice Gloves that come with It ?

 

[BIG BOB]

I will go back out side and check the bag again .

I checked mine last night, and it's a 16" black steel wheel with a P265/75 tire on it. My '04 has the 17" wheels with P265/70's. What a rip-off. Owners manual tells me to 'try not to use 4 wheel drive when using spare'. Anyone install the 'correct' size tire/wheel combo yet? I'm thinking the 75 aspect ratio of the 16" doesn't make up for the 1" diameter larger 70 series..............

 

[BIG BOB]

16 inch black steel with a firestone wilderness LE
same size the truck came with 2wd 1500

 

[Always Wireless]

Arrival, I?m in the same boat as you. Black rim, Bridgestone Dueller, 265/75 16?. So much for the ?full size? spare.

The OD is within a .1" of 17" z66/z71 tires..................
