- What's going on guys?
Fuller here with Custom Offsets,
Custom Offsets TV on the YouTube.
And now a question that we get all the time is
can you have a good looking truck build
for a very cheap price.
And so today, we're gonna kinda go over
what your options are as far as building your truck
on a budget since nowadays, brand new trucks
are super expensive.
Most people are buying used vehicles
and still wanna do something to kinda make it their own
and I think a lot of people have this preconceived notion
that if you wanna do a full truck build,
if you want 20 by 12's, if you want big tires
and you want a lift kit that it's going to get
very, very expensive and it definitely can,
but it all comes down to brands and selection
and just kinda knowing what your options are.
So today we're gonna dive into that a little bit
and I think where we're gonna start is in suspension
because everybody knows that if you
want to fit a large wheel and tire set up,
you're going to have to increase the right head
of your vehicle and that's gonna be done
with a suspension lift.
Now if you wanna keep it on the most cost effective side,
obviously, you can just do a level
but that's gonna be very cheap as far as price point goes
but it's also gonna limit what you can kind of fit
on that vehicle since you're not raising it up a ton.
So when it comes to like the six inch lift market,
I think people are gonna be surprised to find out
that you can get a Rough Country six inch lift
for about a $1000.
If you wanna step up to coilovers,
you can get one of those kits
from Rough Country for like $2100.
Now I'm not gonna be the guy that sit out here
and say that oh a $1000 is cheap
and it's just easy to come up with
because for many of us and for me, I can't
don't just have a $1000 to dispose of like that.
But you can kinda set that goal
and know that it's a $1000.
It's not five grand.
There are some suspension systems out there
that are going to cost at like $5000 or more.
But there's options out there if you want
the look of a lifted truck,
you don't wanna spend all of the money.
I think Rough Country's a great option for that.
There's other versions of kits out there too
like we always talk about how we really like BDS kits
and the quality that they bring.
Well not everybody knows that they have a sister company
called Zone that offers a more affordable kits
for a little bit less money.
So there's always options out there
and it's kinda just knowing that
you can select those things
and knowing that you can trust the Rough Country lift kit.
We've ran them on many of our personal vehicles.
So it's definitely an option for you.
We've got other videos that explain in depth,
kind of the history of Rough Country,
what they've been doing to improve their quality
and we've been super satisfied with everything they've done.
So that kind of covers the suspension part of it.
Now when we jump to talk about wheels,
again this is another thing where it really depends
on your sizing as far as what
these wheels are going to cost.
I like to use 20 by 12 as a good baseline.
Because that's gonna get you that show quality
wheel that you're looking for with the big lip,
without going so big that you're gonna break the bank.
And you'll probably be surprised to find that again,
there's a lot of wheels out there
for under a $1000 that you can get
a set of four 20 by 12's in
and the next thing is that Custom Offsets always
does mounting and balancing for free
and we ship for free in the lower 48 states as well.
So it's just more things out there
to kinda keep that cost down.
And its not from names you've never heard of.
Obviously, there are some wheel brands
that you've probably never heard of
and they're gonna have some affordable wheels out there too.
And we try to make videos on just about all of those.
But you can expect to see, XD, RBP, those kinda guys
still making 20 by 12 wheels that are in a price point
that's at least attainable for most people.
When it comes to tires, that's obviously
a huge part of your vehicle where you can spend
a lot of money or a very little amount of money.
So again, knowing the options that are out there,
a perfect example of that is like the Venom Power Tires
that I just did a review on.
You can get a set of 33s in the Venom Powers
for like $800 for the set of four.
That's a really good price when it comes to tires.
And the bigger you go, the more expensive it gets.
There's some Fury Tires out there
that are gonna cost $4000 for the set of four
and things just kinda get blown out of proportion
the larger you go but that's to be expected.
More material, smaller sidewalls that require more
tire technology that's all gonna increase those prices.
So it's just again, knowing what options are out there.
That's why we built a gallery so you can see
what a complete setup is gonna look like.
And kinda judge the pricing based on that.
Tires are a very important part of your vehicle
simply because that's what's actually contacting
your truck to the pavement.
So if you're going to spend more money
in any one of the three categories,
I'd probably stick in the tires.
You get something that's gonna last
as long as possible for you.
And just obviously keep you the safest
when you're driving your vehicle down the road.
But we've had absolutely no problems.
I'm running Venom Power Tires on my truck.
Tarot's been making tires for a number of years now
at a more affordable price point.
Those tend to do good.
You gotta keep up with proper rotations
and make sure your tire pressure's all correct and what-not.
But right off the bat, you're gonna get in
the lifted truck game without having to shell out
thousands and thousands of dollars for that set of tires
that you're going to end up
replacing in the future anyway.
Tires are that reoccurring expense 'cause it is something
that is gonna wear down.
Another great example of a more affordable tire
is gonna be Kanati.
So Kanati actually makes tires that look
very, very similar to some of the other
more expensive tires on the market.
We just grabbed a set to demo on a jeep
that we have here and so far, just by looking at them
and kinda going over the tire,
it really seems like they're gonna perform
nearly as good as those more expensive tires,
but again, for a fraction of the price.
So Kanati is another great option
for some more affordable tires.
