Default Some pic whoring and looking for recommendations...











Eventually I want to run 17's up front and 18's out back, drop the *** end an 1" or 2" depending on what size tires I run, rollpan, bumper from a diesel with the holes in the front, new hood...maybe a cowl hood, and colormatch the grille.

Any more ideas?

Loving your truck. Maybe some 5 spoke torque thrusts or 454ss wheels? Are your doors saggy or is it just the pics? I needed to put door bushings on my OBS.

time for a cowl hood and some 454ss wheels would look nasty on there, I would pull of the black door trim and debage it, possibly a roll pan, Looks really clean and good liking it props to ya

nice looking truck, i'd say level the back, paint gril,l mirrors, and handles to match. remove the side molding. those top rims u posted would look great on it to me. rollpan. billet inserts in the grill painted black, remove the chrome fender trim, and black headlights. thats just my .02

Looks good. Some black or dark gray aluminum wheels plus the ideas you already had.

If that were mine, I'd go with some dark grey Corvette Rally style wheels, with the old style "Disc Brake" centers.

I'm really trying to get away from 15's...I plan on doing a little bit more suspension work to lessen body roll and with 15's I'd have more sidewall meaning more sidewall flex.

Hard to see in these pics but I do have headlights with a black housing...I wouldn't like have the lenses tinted cause I enjoy my HID's

I'll probably leave the side molding cause I think it compliments all the black accents I have so far and saves my truck in the college parking lot. I forgot to mention black billet in the grille...I do want some And yeah I don't want any chrome on my truck so the fender trim is getting trashed

Thanks for the compliment man

If I get those wheels I'll have to get them powder coated black though
Coy's doesn't make any of them black
