bluejay i have never realized how good your truck looks. its so simple and clean looking. and of course the cow pasture might help out a bit!

That's sharp! I wonder what White would look like? I want to keep the stock wheels for now but want a wider tire eventually. Any suggestions on tires?

Thanks! Yes it is pretty basic. Lowered 2" in the rear, tint on front windows, added the nerf bars, exhaust and wheels.

I have a pic of the truck with stock wheels and 265/70/17s on it but I'll have to post it tomorrow. I think the best choice is to drop it two inches and go with 285/70/17s.

You are very correct about the pasture adding a lot.

Not sure about the 18s, but Wandell will be able to tell you when he sees the thread. If he doesn't post, sent him a message.
