I would smoke or black out those tail lights, I personally think that along with that done to the 3rd brake light would look sick.

Not sure on rims.. I am asking myself the same questions for my rig.

I hate having to deal with busting major cash for wheels and tires. Just cant seem to make up my mind. SS 22 chrome, or Boss wheels, or save up for custom Billets. Its a tuff one.

I had a set of Boss rims on my old truck and loved them. No complaint in quality or fit.

Those taillights would looked good painted over because the bulb spread is pretty nice, it's just the whole Altezza look died in 2003 imo. Black chrome wasn't a bad idea, just not on the body of the truck. Black chrome would of been better on the wheels, but not those one!
also the red lug nut caps really don't go with anything, looks out of place.

A+ for effort though!!

Im thinking about swapping the factory tails back, they LED tails dont look like i thought they would. Actually nothing looked like i thought it would on this new setup. I do like the black chrome front end. The new wheel and tire setup is off just a bit. Maybe they are just a good set of track shoes. Thinking about 22" chrome or silver SS wheels too. The read lug nuts i was just playing around. It just didnt come together like i thought it was going too.

Should i have left this wheel and tire setup?
