(upbeat music)
- Hey, what's going on guys, Lawson with Custom Offsets.
We got another, "From the Gallery" for you guys.
This time I brought my buddy Mason over from Anthem Off-Road
and we're gonna be rating some trucks in our gallery.
If you guys wanna be featured on "From the Gallery",
all you gotta do, is add your truck to our gallery,
customoffsets.com/add.
Also, if you guys, of course need wheels,
tires, suspension accessories, customoffsets.com.
And last but not least, there's a ton of plugs I know,
we're doing another giveaway
at customoffsets.com/giveaway
if you guys wanna get entered to win a free build.
Enough of me talking about the plugs, let's hop into it.
Are you ready?
- Let's do it.
- Alright.
I can already tell that this episode is going to be insane.
The first truck up,
I can already tell it's going to be crazy.
So we got a 2016 GMC Sierra 2,500 HD,
specialty forge S F 23
and the 28-16 negative 101 offset.
Fury off-road country Hunter MTs, and a 42, 15.5,
and a striker off-road lift of greater than 12 inches.
- That thing is huge.
- It's huge.
- Yeah.
- All right, Hopping into the suspension details,
Striker off-road design,
16 to 22 inch adjustable left sword shocks.
Only a GMC to be on striker off-road design lift kit.
No rubbing, no scrubbing cause you're massive,
no trimming, no spacers.
2019 SEMA build, SEMA tour of vehicle selection
one of six, complete frame off build
and the list just goes on and on.
Gen-Y hitch custom grill road, armor,
front and rear bumpers, amp steps,
right controller for lights, hood swab,
royalty hooks like.
- The whole nine wards.
- I would need another five minutes
just to list off everything that's done in this truck,
this thing is insane.
Lets hope into some pictures, what do we think?
- That thing is pretty wild looking.
Don't see them that big too often honestly.
It looks really nice,
so it's got a lot done to it.
You can tell there's lots of time that he put into it,
lots of, you know, effort and yeah.
- Absolutely.
A lot bigger than what you Anthem boys see huh?
- Yeah, we're more used to the
level kits or maybe two four-inchers within 12 plus,
I didn't even know that they made them that big.
(laughter)
- All right, well, I think I've seen enough,
I'm ready to rate it, what about yourself?
- Yeah, am ready to go.
- All right.
Three, two, one, 10.
Eight. - Eight.
- Why an eight?
- For me really, the only thing that holds it back,
is the color, I just,
I mean I liked the way it looks, but for me personally,
I am not really a fan of bright colored vehicles like that.
And it's not that it's overly bright,
I'm just more of like a wider black,
and more of my style I guess.
- Absolutely, I think with how crazy the build,
I was gonna give it a nine
just because the graphics down the side,
it'd be cool to see a full done wrap, but at the same time
the amount of work and effort
and being a SEMA and being a one-off
and all this crazy stuff had to give it a 10.
This thing is freaking insane man.
Alright, let's hop onto the next one.
2016 Toyota Tacoma Anthem off road defenders baby.
- Unreal, there they are.
- Twenty by nine negative 12 offset Cooper discover STT pros
and a 35, 13 and a half, and a BDS suspension lift
of six inches,
pretty tall for Anthem boys right there, six inches.
- For real!
- Six inch BDS coil over kit,
trade the four-inch block for a three inch
and change the leaf pack to old man E M U he pack.
Don't know what any of that means,
or what he was trying to say there.
But it sounds like he traded in his blocks
and some leaf packs,
so, no rubbing or scrubbing,
minor metal trimming, just cab Mount chop.
So a little bit of metal trimming there
to fit those anthems in there.
No spacers in the front or rear.
He's got custom front grill, O E massive headlights,
rigid Fogg's and ditch lights,
fab four rear bumper Morimoto HID headlights, RGB strips
and the grill letters and RGB rock lights.
- That's awesome.
I mean, looking at it at a first glance,
you don't really realize
there's nearly that much done to it,
so I think that's pretty cool that he's done a lot to it,
but it's still looks, you know.
- Right.
- Looks good.
- Yeah, absolutely.
It's pretty crazy, cause like six inches,
especially on these Tacoma's go a long way.
- For real, yeah.
- It makes them, it makes them look pretty large
and you don't see a lot of people doing.
Usually anything that we see come out of the shop,
is always like your three-inch or something like that.
To see something a little bit larger is pretty cool.
- Heck yeah.
- The Morimoto's on these Tacoma's are sick.
- Sweet.
- Yeah, the front grill is sick.
He's wheeling it right here on a G,
this guy likes to party
and I normally don't like red vehicles,
and I actually dig this.
- For real.
- I like the maturity pro vinyl,
just everything really ties in together so.
All right I think I'm ready.
- I'm ready too.
- All right, three two one,
seven. - Nine.
- Alright.
- And this where you guys are gonna start to see
Mason and I have complete different styles,
and that's why we work where we work you know.
You, your division specializes in this sort of stuff.
- Hmm, for real.
- For daily drivers on the 20 by nine,
20 by 10, you know,
the hit the trails kind of guys,
where the previous truck is like a hell yeah, let's do it.
That's that's my kind of stuff.
- For real.
- Alright, all right, so why'd you pick a nine?
- I would say for me,
I think the fitment looks pretty solid on this.
Like I said, everything that he's done
is pretty tasteful to it.
I think like you said, the red again,
I think red and black is really the only color scheme
that I think red goes with.
So I think being that it is red and black like that,
I think he can get away with it.
Lots of lights and stuff.
If you need extra light anytime,
he's got all those cubes and light bars and stuff so
- Absolutely.
- Yeah, how about you?
- You're a fisher and a hunter.
- Yup.
- So this is like right up your alley.
- Yeah, exactly.
- You like the money
- Exactly, enough to get that kind of back in the woods,
if you gotta drag something out or, yeah exactly.
- Absolutely, when I was down in Florida
and we were doing the tire review on Sean's Tacoma,
that Tacoma actually was really nice and very useful.
- For real.
- Like road really nice, even on the 35s and like
for what he was using it for, you know,
for hauling all of his fishing equipment, everything,
it was like the perfect mid-sized vehicle that he needed.
- Totally.
- So, I definitely dig them.
I gave it a seven just because it,
like I said, it's like your daily driver vehicle.
Like sure, I would love to have one of these
for a daily driver, but at the end of the day,
my taste is into the bigger, more huge short trucks.
So off to a great start though.
I'm glad that you went with the cubes, the lights,
the Morimotos, like once again,
the Morimotos on these Tacomas
are probably one of my favorite
units - For real.
- I had that units from Morimoto.
So, I think they're super sick,
and then of course got to go with Anthems baby.
- Heck yeah.
- Alright, next up, we got a 2006 Ford F 250, super duty,
Anthem off-road equalizers,
in the 2214 negative 76 Nitto trail grappler 375-45
and a rough country suspension lift of six inches.
It looks like he's got slight rub at full-term,
minor plastic trimming,
slight trimming to fender wall,
did not want to chop up a lot,
just wanted to trim enough to clear.
It will rub at full crank hitting a bump,
otherwise clears with slight trimming, driving down roads.
Nice, no spacers, 52 inch curved halo light bar RGB pods,
precision series, move bumpers.
0 eight plus rear bumper 35% 10 truck emblem,
warehouse emblem, mesh grill,
aftermarket lights all around, bed decal paint to match,
0 eight plus mirrors and custom step pitch.
What hadn't been done?
- Yeah, for real.
- And some more.
- Heck yeah. (chuckles)
- Oh, it's a single cab.
- Yeah, I didn't notice that at first
until you started clicking through it
- Oh, interesting.
Okay, all right, so like you said,
like I was saying earlier,
obviously this is, now we're starting to get
into more of like the guys
that are using their Anthem trucks for a little more show,
which is cool to see.
- Absolutely.
- Especially, it's probably a little more different
than what you're used to seeing,
this man's got a puppy in the back,
already gotta give him a 10.
(chuckles)
Yeah, just overall, I think the paint to match
and everything goes along way.
I'm ready if you are.
- Yeah, I think I'm ready to go to.
- Alright, three, two, one,
six. - Seven, cool.
- Why seven?
- I don't really, I think the single cab is cool,
it's pretty different and unique,
you don't really see that every day,
but for me, it's not my particular style again.
- Sure.
- But for real, it's a pretty cool build
and he put a lot of time into it.
And like you said, the color match, like front bumper,
stuff like that, all that extra time,
that really makes the build come together
so it looks really good.
- Absolutely, I think he's off to a great start,
personally I've seen the rough flight bars kind of go away,
and like sometimes they work,
I'm not saying that this is a bad option,
I just personally I would never put one up there.
Past that, I liked that he paint to match, has moved bumper,
not a big fan of the black rear bumper,
or the huge black fender flares personally.
And then like just ginormous Chrome steps out of nowhere.
- Yeah.
- It's just a lot of meshing around,
obviously he's got like the red stickers on the back window
which I really liked.
So, he's got the right themes,
now it's just getting everything to mesh around.
- Kind of fine tune it.
- I think taken off this vine on the back,
might clean things up a little bit,
but once again, personal preference, still pretty cool.
Single calves are super sick,
and I think he definitely did that upright.
- Heck yeah.
- Alright, stepping away from some Anthems,
2001 Dodge Ram 2,500 fuel forged FF35s and a 22 by 16, jeez.
- Wow.
- Negative 101 offset ant mud terrain attack MTs,
and the 33, 14 and a half,
and then also a rough country suspension lift
of three inches.
Take a look at it, three inch rough country,
slight rub at full turn, no trimming,
two inch spacers.
Two inch spacers, man!
This man has two inch spacers.
- Serious stance.
- On top of your, on top of your 16 muts.
- Just wasn't enough. (chuckles)
- Oh my goodness.
That's a wild boy.
All right, Bill headlights, LED taillights,
he's also got a fleece cheetah turbo, smarty touch tuner,
and five inch exhaust into eight inch stack 5%, 10.
All right, wow.
- That's wild.
- That thing is wide man. (laughter)
Oh my goodness.
- Straight on shot.
- Holy smokes.
That, I can't even hate it.
- For real.
- I can't even hate.
- It looks pretty sick.
- Alright, I think I'm ready.
- I think I got a score too.
- All right, three, two, one,
eight. - Eight, yeah nice.
- I think it's super clean, I really dig it.
I like how there's not a ton done,
especially when you start to see
like these low and wide trucks,
you know, on like some forge wheels
and just that there's not a ton done,
it's just overall super clean.
- Sure.
- I really, really dig the look.
- Heck yeah.
- Yeah, I think it's just a solid start.
Obviously he's, he puts some more money
into like the performance, the turbo,
the exhaust, everything else.
- Yup.
- Now it's just maybe clean it up a couple of other things
and this thing is ready to rock.
- Yeah, for real.
- If I saw this at the show,
I would stop and look at this thing all day.
- I wonder what that thing sounds like
driving down the road, like a SEMA probably.
That's awesome.
- That's like, that's stand there 22 by 18.
- That is, that is true yeah, that's pretty sick.
- Oh my gosh, that blows my mind,
I can't believe that. - It's wild.
- Last but not least, 2011 Chevy Silverado 1500
Xtreme Force X, F eight and a 24 or 14 negative 76
a Hyatt up mud champ, 35, 12 and a half
and its own suspension lift of six and half inches.
He's got, zone six and a half inch lift
with a two inch zone leveling kit.
So he's sitting in about eight and a half up front.
A slight rub at full turn, minor plastic trimming.
He does have two inch spacers
in the back probably to match the,
you know the push out front, from the increased track width.
A color match grill, bumper, mirror and door handles.
Every light is LED, mid South LED,
color match headlights, tow hook, a black Chevy emblems,
custom exhaust with five inch tip color match like cubes.
Color match this and color match that, damn!
It's just an overall clean truck.
- For real
- It looks really good,
white matched.
It's like a, it's like a baby CO2.
- (chuckles) It is very similar.
- All right, well I'm ready.
- I'm ready.
- Alright, three, two, one,
eight. - Eight cool.
- I think it's just overall solid build,
I liked that he went with Xtreme Force.
Don't mind that they're just beatin' the
out of Junior's Bronco cause its really nice.
I liked that he went with Xtreme Forces,
the tires I don't know a ton about,
so maybe go with something a little bit different
unless they work for you,
obviously, we never know
the circumstances, situations. - For real.
- You know, he could have gotten a steal on them.
And then yeah, I dig that he stacked the two inch
on the six and a half to get that little bit of extra
lift out of the front.
We don't recommend it, it can be dangerous,
but he risked it for the biscuit,
now he's sitting a little taller up front and looking good.
- Heck yeah.
- Like he color matched everything, what do you think?
- Yeah for real, no I agree, I think all the time
that he put into it's really obvious that he went through
and all those fine little details
kind of like you're saying you know,
the cube lights are outlined in white
and everything that can be color matched,
pretty much is color matched.
So it's really cool to see someone put that much time
into it, and bumping out the back a little bit,
just to kind of match the front more.
That's, all that stuff pays off in the end for sure.
- All right guys, that's all we got for you guys
