Default Pics after drop and wheel change

I just put on the Caltracs and did a 2/4 drop while I was at it. I'm also running a set of stock steel 16" wheels painted black and 275/60 Toyo Proxes S/T's.

Very nice, I like your style. The painted stock 16's are defintely a love/hate thing. I personally love them. Gives your truck a mean, no BS, look.

Thanks that's the look i'm going for. Yeah I figured many wouldn't like the wheels. I have a set of factory 20" SS wheels. I like the way they look but there so heavy.

Transmission will hopefully be rebuilt in the next few weeks. Hope to go to the track again early in the year. Track opens up January 9th. As for the ride up front.. Feels like a truck with cut coils. I was surprised however with the amount of body roll the caltracs took out. Traction already feels better too even with street tires.. By the way Ben, I found my best time slip and my best 60ft was 1.92 w/et of 12.82@105.8mph

Personally... I like it... a lot. Wouldn't mind having one myself. Actually, makes me think of the COPO Camaro's with the color matching wheels with the chrome center caps.
