Truck is lookin good! Personally I like the red, but having had a nearly identical version to that being white, I gotta say it would look good either way. To give you an idea of white with the black wheels: Name:  0214111232b.jpg

Some of the fastest trucks on this site are white. That must be the reason.

The bead locks are an important look to the truck that Vic wanted. (plus they where cheap! like $115 since they are IMCA dirt track stock car wheels) We talked about it and probable gonna put a gold pin strip around the bead of the front rims to make them semi match the gold bolts on the bead locks. This truck really isn't much of a sleeper if you hear it! Rumbles pretty nice through the 4" magnflow muffler and KB built exhaust and the cam has quite a bit of lope to it! It's gonna lock sic white!

Dang im slacking on the replies! ! I think white is the color if choice and like kb said a gold pin strip on the front wheels to match the rear bead locks. I honestly dont like the center caps for these wheels so in not getting them. Just painting the centers black and letting it roll. It will be painted by next Sunday for sure.

The factory center caps and lugs should look good.

I agree the old scholcap look like crap.
