Default New & Final Wheel Setup:

alright well I put em on yesterday be4 work and I could only be more happy if Summit sent my center caps (its ok Ill get some shorties from work) and if I balanced my rears so they didnt vib haha Ill take care of that some time soon. So here it is: 17x8 Cragar Soft 8 ("Unique Wheels") and 17x9 in the rear wrapped in Faulken 255/50 up front and 275/50 in the rear.
Let me know if the pics dont load or somethin.. maybe let me know how to embed them. Thanks hope u guys like it

I like the wheels and the look but the tires are a little short, IMO. Nice truck though!

Yeah it will definitely look bad *** with some drop. I had those same rims in 15x7 on my black '97 S10. With a 2/4 (I think...) drop and 235/60/15 Kelly Chargers with raised white letters it looked pretty freakin' cool. I got a lot of compliments on it and I bet you will too.
