Added some Platinum Wheels

Hey, I put some platinum wheels on my truck, thought I'd share. I love the way they look... just have to get some new tires on them now. Probably in the fall.

Lookin' good. I actually liked the 18 inch and these platinum wheels. I like the black paint that they use in the wheels much better than all chrome or the brown paint used for the KR wheels.

I found a set on kijiji online. There is usually a set that comes up a few times a month but they usually sell within a few hours.

Lots of take-off wheels. I hardly see Platinum trucks with the stock wheels around here other than on the dealership lot.

I had to buy a whole new truck to get those wheels

Now I'm looking to pull the step bars and get me some AMP steps that allow this short legged couple to get in and out of the f350 easier !!!

The red (PRR) on these trucks looks killer in person....

My wife and I were leaving dinner Friday night, there was a PRR 6.7 in the parking lot, caught her eye, "whoa, now that's a good looking truck, almost as fine as yours" I might keep her around a little while longer.....

but OP- to your topic, I agree, nice wheel choice, now you just need those previously hinted at AT/MT's later on

Thanks Guys, I've wanted them for awhile now. I was running Duratracs on my stock 18's before. I'll probably get those or Open Country AT2's this fall.

I bought the "base" Lariat because I liked the stock 18's (with the painted charcoal paint insets) and the plastic running boards rather than the chrome ones. Previous trucks I had with the chrome boards ended up rusting too soon.
