The truck came with the rims, they need polished up! I got a new set of center caps, these better stay on or I will not get another set!

I should polish up mine, and see what happens. Either that, or fork over the money for a set of aftermarket ones.

Looking at those coils, those would make a nice suspension upgrade! Does it ride better than the stock ones?

Looks a lot better Glenn! I would think the ride will be a lot better, especially towing.
