GOT MY NEW WHEELS ON TODAY! (pics)

Hey yall, my Rockstars FINALLY came in today! I stayed with an 18" wheel so I wouldn't have to buy new tires+I think its a good size anyway. Tell me what you think! (stock wheels are for sale, check link in signature.)

Way before with the stock tires+rims:


(today) Before Rockstars:


After:




I am debating if I want to take the chrome bug shield off the front now, What do y'all think?

Next mod is either going to be leveling kit, Fender Flares or an alarm system.(getting black Ford decals from patriot soon though)

Thanks for lookin y'all!
-Barrett

Thanks yall, and Sandstone I'm not sure, probably not all the way. I want to paint my badges but the parents think I will mess my truck's paint up . They worry too much, if I could just figure out how to get those badges on and off I'd have a better chance..

New wheels look Great on your truck! and yea I think it would look better without the chrome bugshield, you could replace it with a black bugshield, I live in the country and its amazing what a difference the bugshield makes, without it on it would take forever to wash the front of my truck
