looks like maybe front is dropped, maybe, id put shackles on the back, some oem 20s would clean it up, and bring it to someone to colormatch it, truck looks like you said, like a kid owned it. 5.3 has lots of goodies, just need to sit down and figure out what you want to do, but rims gotta go for sure.
