- This was an absolute STEAL! Huge car trailer for under $1000?? Is it possible? What's wrong with it? I bought this thing sight unseen and made a 700 mile trip to get it. What could possibly go wrong? Oh, AND I bought a car on the way back with it too..... :)

5k likes and ur changing your trucks rims
Sure, I agree to that! But can you guys get there??
@@matt13ross I like those rims on your truck
Wasn't there a video where a truck lost a similar wheel on a highway and that wheel caused another car in the next lane to flip over?
We can only hope somebody steals those wheels while you go to get the trailer
Ahahaha that's great! But please no
That made me laugh
😂😂
Those deep dish wheels need to find a new home.
maybe in Houston, Vegas, or Compton
@@slowery43 Don't be that guy...
Home on the truck!!
Thank you for putting the stock wheels back on LOL those factory rims look 10000 times better.
The stock wheels look better and as you said won’t cause suspension damage and are actually rated to tow. The aftermarket eliminates what the truck was actually built for as there is. No way I’d ever tow with low profile wide tires like those. On top of that the stock tires won’t cause damage to vehicles behind you as well as yours and are actually legal. You can definitely find wheels and tires that are a bit wider and better looking than the factory that are still tow rated, won’t cause suspension damage, aren’t a danger to cars behind you as well as being legal.
Teenage trends those wheels way better now, of course we still can get nicer ones but at least stock is better than those replaced.
Actually I had buddies who ran those type of wheels and tow a massive goose neck trailer and his truck’s suspension does just fine.( you could always upgrade to a much better suspension) now the whole damaging thing doesn’t happen as often. But if you really wanna guarantee it, you can put mud flaps on it.. problem solved plus the wide wheels really gives the truck a lot of character, the stock wheels really just makes the entire truck look like a grandpa truck, sorry, not sorry.
@@LyttonKing it’s not just about the suspension. Tires have a maximum load rating. It’s stamped right on the tire. Hauling heavy loads you should be utilizing 10 ply or higher depending on the weight. You also don’t want low profile tires like that because there’s no cushion if you hit a big bump or pothole. Plus with heavy loads your tires will compress some as well. Running down the highway at 70-75 mph and having your wheel bent causing a blow out will be very dangerous.
Mud flaps also won’t fix all the problem. He would have to put really large fender flairs on it in order to cover the entire wheel.
I understand some people like the looks and I understand why. Upgrading your wheels and tires to a better looking larger size while staying inside the fenders is completely possible and done every day.
I’ve had to work accidents that were caused by another vehicle be it a car or truck or a semi truck throwing objects through someone’s windshield. In one case an occupant was very seriously injured and in another case it caused a secondary accident when the driver walked other brakes and tried to swerve out of the way thus hitting another vehicle which in turn caused additional crashes. It’s just a safety thing. You have to ask yourself don’t you want your family to be as safe as possible while driving on the road? It’s already dangerous enough, we don’t need something else to worry about as well.
It’s why most states created a law stating that your wheels cannot stick out past the factory fenders unless they are properly covered by fender flairs and of course mud flaps and in that case they cannot stick out past the rear view mirrors.
Words can't describe how much better those stock wheels are
The fact you changed them to actually use the truck kinda proves a point people make. They’re not only ugly, but also impractical. Those aren’t the best looking stock wheels but a new set of bigger tires would make them look a lot better.
Also, those spiked lug nuts probably don’t seat up against the factory wheel like they should…pretty sure oem lug nuts are shaped a little different.
People with wide wheels have proven over and over that you can use the wide wheels while towing.
@@LyttonKing just because you can doesn’t mean you should
@@LyttonKing Yeah, and you can also Carolina Squat your truck and tow too, but both of those things just imply you have brain damage beyond reasonable doubt. Thankfully that in of itself is being outlawed in multiple State's. There is a multitude of undisputable reasons as to why manufacturers make their trucks and set them up the way that they do for towing purposes and purposes of the truck itself, and why none of them come looking like this out of the factory.
@@SpeCifiC0507 never have a Carolina squat in my truck nor do I ever plan so, those wheels makes the truck look good, and it actually surprisingly does it job more than what it should have done
The main reason for the switch was wear and tire on my nice wheels plus driving in the Bronx. They're fine for towing.
Stock wheels arent great, but It's the offset that makes the aftermarket wheels look especially dumb. The spiked lugs don't help.
IDK wherey stock lugs are, hence the spikes.
Hahaha @@matt13ross
Crazy how much better the stocks look!!
These stock wheels looks way better than the rubber bands. If you don’t like them get a wheel and tire combo that is functional, rubber band are not meant for towing
Sorry but stock looks the best 😊
X2…sorry Matt
Chevy wheels always look great with a bigger tire on them! A 35 on his truck would be perfect.
Finally at least for the time being it's way more nice.
Matt seems to fuck up the wheel selection on everything. Never should of took the #blackwheelsmatter off the yellow Porsche. Then he put those ugly ass stick-eight-miles-outside-of-the-fender wheels on his truck.
The tires and wheels actually fit inside the wheel wells! It looks much, much better!
Stock wheels... much better! Your love of those other wheels has always befuddles me... but to each his own, except on those wheels! Love your channel!
Those factory wheels and tires look much better. I can’t tell you how much I hate those aftermarket ones
Stock wheels look better than those hideous rims… and if you hate them so much there are tons of options available that have a better stance and tyre to wheel ratio…
Well Matt, my 2 cents is that the stock wheel setup looks better than your custom combination. You could also lose the spike lug nuts because they scream immaturity.
That's just the lugs I had.
Your truck looks so much better with the stock wheels 👍ditch those ridiculous ones please 🙏
You need a different hitch to raise the center point of the trailer so it doesn't front sag and cause your truck to sag.
Yes. But I didint know that until I got the trailer.
I'm not for the stock wheels, just very much against the bro-dozer wheels.😁
Exactly. It's not that we love the stock wheels, it's just that the stock wheels are better than the chosen aftermarket ones. There are other aftermarket choices that more people would agree with
The stock wheels and tires look much better but…. Those tacky spikey lug nuts look stupid bro.
Congratulations on the trailer. The damage is not too bad. Killer deal!
I only used them because IDK where I put them stock lugs lol
Dude! The stock wheels look 100 times better. Honestly its so obvious it’s not even worth mentioning.
Stock wheels with normal nuts all day. I don’t get the other wheels at all. Nice grab on the trailer. Hope you fix it up to your liking.
HUGE fan of the channel and trucks in general. However. Those factory wheels look so so so much better dude
I am guessing a Porsche is what you picked up on the way home ! at least from my lip reading ( Questionable skills ) , really do enjoy the Porsche content
You should be able to read my lips. I think it's obvious lol
Stock wheels with semi off-road tires would look nice
The stock rims and tires look so much better. Sorry, not a fan of trucks with those skinny tires
Your truck, your tyres. Glad you changed them for towing though
The stock wheels are a little boring, but having some sidewall makes the truck look a lot better.
The OEM look much better. :) The OEM chrome wheels leak air though. My High Country that I bought brand new in 2015 needed the OEM wheels replaced last year because of it. Bought some FUELs.
Dude, its only ego telling you the custom setup is better. The stock wheels may be fugly, but they are a country mile better than the custom and 10x better from a functional / comfort perspective.
I certainly don't have an ego. I just love the wheels lol. They will get bigger tires eventually.
I like the stock wheels better, but I dig your style and it’s your truck.
Dude 😂😂😂I know you love those wheels 🛞 but please don’t put them back on the truck 😅😂😂😂😂
Hopefully someone will steal those nasty ass wheels while you're gone...Now it looks like a grownups truck...Lol 3:32
Might be “grandpa”, but stock looks better and will certainly make towing work correctly.
Awesome deal Matt! No doubt with your ingenuity & mechanical knowledge you got this fixed!
This is what I like about your Channel….Straight out no bullshit diy …If it works it works …If it doesnt then tacckle it again…..Top job Matt 💪💪💪💪
Your editing just gets better and better. The road trip shots and montage really help tell that short story of your trip. Looking forward to whatever you towed home!
I do think he's getting the hang of pacing his videos so he's not slowing down so much and then speeding up through things.
@@travisfabel8040 Agreed.
Thanks guys! I try and keep them fast paced and not boring.
@@matt13ross I think there are a lot of us who would watch whatever you decide to produce. You're doing a great job.
Words can't describe how much better the stock rims look!
Dont forget to include a inline fuse(15amp) from the battery.
Finally, looks like an actual purposeful truck with stock wheels. To each their own I guess...
Now I can rewatch it without the lagging. You’ve quickly become one of my favourite creators.
Thank you!
Yeah…both wheels for the truck look horrendous 😂
No Shade but digging the stock wheels better than the deep dish. Cool trailer dude.
We make fun of the people that put big wheels and tiny tires on big trucks. What's next squatting it?
Also if you feel you need to change them out to tow a trailer.... probably says more about it than any of us can.
Yesss finally we get to see the stock wheels.
Great video as always Matt! This trailer is going to be a god send for ya! I picked up a small enclosed trailer for Dirt Biking, a little overnight camping for Dirt bike weekends and well all of the other stuff you need trailers for. Thanks for posting!
Man you keep improving yourself! Great video as always! Idc about the wheels, it's yours, you like it, that's all I care about it.
Stock wheels look much better.
Sorry Matt but as a long time subscriber i said i didn't like them when you first put them on and still😅 haven't changed my mind. Stock so much better, but IMO change the lugs as well. Trucks that are purpose built are built so for a reason mate. Here in Australia with so much gravel the low profile tyres and rims would be useless. My opinion only though. Love the channel.
Way better looking with the old tires and wheels. 😜
Stock wheels are average but a million times better than those hideous pimp style wheels!
Good deal on the trailer!
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts
The day I left her standing on her own👍 great road trip Mr Matt
Those rims are fire, the everybody cant pull off the hotboy chrome look. They just dont understand
Lol being a grandpa I like the non stock wheels and tires. But for the tow stock was the right choice.
Those 2007 bro dozer wheels are hideous
I just did the same thing with a BMW E46 on my page. GREAT WORK.
Lovely trailer that! Wish we had nice capable trucks in the UK like you have in the USA
I literally just picked up my enclosed copart trailer yesterday!! There is barely any damage on it!! Keep up the good work man!!
Thanks! Will do!
Pretty impressive Matt, you never know what's around the next corner. My Wife and I went through our Motorhome phase and every spring was a new big repair, sold it real cheap to get rid of it. I hope you have a better experience than we did.
I hope so too!
Awesome, Matt! Great find on the trailer - nothing like a new project, eh? ;)
Lots of new ones!
Truck's looking awsome with the big rims😎 whole truck is spot on🤙🤙
Yeh, finally made the truck look good
Boy, we all roasted your non functional 'rubber band' wheels! I love everything else you do!
I've been roasted hundreds of times in this video alone lol
I am thinking people don't like your wheels. I don't know what makes me think that but I will continue to investigate
Your work with the electrics is impressive 👌
Thanks 👍
nice now i can buy my next project car now yay
Stock wheels look good. In Finland those toy wheels would not even be legal since they come out from the car too much. Could still be bigger than stock ones, but not with the rim size.
Stock wheels looks far better…
Stock wheels are 🤮 but great for the trip you took✅ ( I’d throw plastic loom over the electric tape on the wiring, it’ll look better and more finished….imho )
This was a steal!
Amazing price for the trailer and you were able to make a video on it already. Well, my guess of 100k subs by July hasn't happened but I do think it's still going to happen before 2025. While I get why some people do or don't like a certain style of custom or stock wheels, it is your truck and you get to choose whatever wheels you like. Looking forward to see what the car is you just bought as well.
Id be thrilled with 100k at the end of the year but it doesn't look like that will happen. I hope so though!
I don't think you could find any worse looking and functional wheels so before you even took them off we knew it was going to look better😂
Sorry Matt but I’m one of those guys who prefer the stock look over your babies. After market are ok but not as wide or low profile as your preferred wheels. However as we say, your truck your wheels 😊
You deffo need bigger wheels than the stock, but those deep dish are just not right imo. That said, it’s your truck - do what you want :)
Best thing you have done for that truck is to take those god awful wheels off
I like the wheels and tires. Do what makes you happy, it's your truck.
The wheels look good, but can't you find one, that fit the truck? 😉
Nice sponsor! I got an E46 through them recently!
Wouw nice trailer voor that money, you did good matt, 😎👍
I love the truck!! Wheels, tires and color!! No hate here
Truck looks so much better
With stock wheels and tires
flex seal tape next time, great patch for trialers
Lolol you caught a shot of one of my buses! NYCD viewer!! From the BX
Ahaha small world!!
i dont mind good looking rims , on some nice tread, those stocks dont look to bad you can always get some 17/18s on 33's and have some offset still !
stock wheels all day on that truck
Love the standard wheels...
Stock rims with bigger tires FTW!
That screen is sick
Stock wheels look much better on that truck. Personal preference, I've never liked the wide wheels on trucks.
I just like to see the stock wheel but wider with a bigger tire. Trucks need side wall
12:55 heh heh tow mirrors
Nice deep dish wheels.
That truck no longer looks embarrassing to drive
that trucks looks sick
Scraplife Garage is one of the best TH-cam channels out there. 😀 entertaining and educational. What more can you ask for 😀
Agreed! He's blowing my channel out of the water lol.
@@matt13ross I enjoy your videos for the educational and entertainment as well. I agree with the others that you deserve a higher subscriber number. Keep em coming 😀
I will thank you!
I pray nothing dumb happens lol 😢
+1 for the stock wheels. i looks less ghetto.
Those nasty stock wheels are a huge upgrade. They look SO MUCH better. Breathtakingly so.
Those new wheels look like clown shoes or a woman with a HUGE behind or a muscle man that can't touch his face. Your truck makes "Squatters" look good.
18:50 I know it was just to get it home but you should upgrade that hitch to one with a higher rating 5k is pretty low. if you load the trailer with a car it would be way over the capacity of that and could break. Also get the correct 2.5" sized hitch for the receiver the 2" one you are using is for 1500 trucks, cars, and mini vans but 2500 pickups use a 2.5" one. If you really don't want to upgrade to the 2.5" hitch they make a sleeve for the receiver to properly allow the 2" hitch in the 2.5" receiver without so much slack like you have and that sleeve is like $11-$15 but you'll still need a stronger hitch for that trailer. Hope this helps just want everybody to stay safe👍
I have a sleeve in there.
love the new wheels
factory wheels so much better, maybe there is a happy medium out there
