What a huge difference!

It's amazing how they change your whole perception of the truck.
Are you going to get some centercaps or paint the hubs???

ya... me and my father were amazed how it made such huge difference in appearance. we both feel in love with the truck all over again.

the center pieces we are going to change them.. actually rims CAME with them... the guy we bought it off forgot until we had already mounted the them on.. so we'll put them on later. but for now... i am satisfied

not quite white enough though sadly, a bit more and it would have warranted plowing.

Lol sorry but yeah, i would have made about 500 bucks if there was another 1/2 inch of it and with all the work I did "trying" to fix my truck I sure do need the $$. Putting in a new valve body tuesday to see if it fixes the issues, could be some unseen damage to 1 of the pieces there now.

3.5 - 4" at my place and I did spend a few minutes plowing. Took off to my parents house for a few hours and when I got back all the snow was basically gone. Oh well.
