Hey guys I have a few general questions. I'm newer to the website so cut me some slack. I have a 79 f150 supercab short box 400cid with a c6 which is 2WD. The truck is completely original and I'm pondering how to get a more aggressive look from the outside. I was going to get some wheel spacers to simplify everything but I've heard a lot of bad opinions. Basically what I'm looking for is other ideas? What have you done with yours?
Thanks.

'Aggressive'? Kind of a vague desire but the typical formula is.....

Lower it three inches in front, five inches in back, stuff as wide a tire in back as possible, custom wheels - not blingy- , black it out, and tint the windows.

I believe i would look around for some wheels first before thinking about wheel spacers . I used wheel spacers to change the bolt pattern and had problems. One was keeping them tight and running true. Some have said they can break but i never had that to happen. There are a lot of different styles of wheels out there.
