Finally put on my Black Saleens!

Spring is here in Minnesota so I bolted on my freshly powder coated (satin black) 23" Saleens wrapped in 305/40/23 Continentals. I know it would look better with a 2/4 drop but here in Minnesota the winters get ugly so I will be running the stock wheels and tires in the snow. Trying to keep things practical for now.

The gold trim gives it a great look.

those look sick man. I really like the way the stance is, but lose those squared off tips....or move them in front of the tire

I can't wait to get mines painted grey. I've been trying to wait until the weather gets right. Go figure b/c today it snowed in NY. It didnt snow bad but flakes were coming down. I will probably get mine painted in a week or so and I'm not dropping my truck either and I dont drive in the winter. Looks really really good.

One other thing. Can you take a shot from the front and the rear. I would like to see how far the wheels stick out. I'm Jealous, lol. I've had my wheels since Nov and I still havent had them painted but like I said above hopefully in a week or two maybe three, lol

Those wheels look great ! I think that the truck looks good for being a 4x4 and still having the stock suspension.

The gold trim breaks up the black really nicely, don't get me wrong I'm a sucker for a blacked out truck, but I'm also one who loves great contrast, the gold makes the black stand out even more. And I agree with BLACKOUT, that thing would look even more wicked dropped, or with bigger tires, never the less that is one sleek truck.
