PMS = Broke

I've been pretty busy the past couple of days updating my trucks look. I got a set of 04 Harley rims with 325-65-18 Nitto A/T's from a friend of Fordbronco69 (Casey) dirt cheap. I also purchased an 05 header pannel and Harley lights to finish up my 05 facelift. I was needing tires really really bad and Casey's friend just happend to update his Harley with new ones and let these go. I really need to wash the truck, but it's supposed to rain again this weekend. Let me know what you think!









I'm still debating on whether I should keep my black rims and put the Nittos on them or not, maybe yall can help me out. I really like the Harley rims, I've even thought about getting them powder-coated black or just leave them alone.

Hey Glenn. I think a pic of the truck outside with the harley wheels would give us a better look. Looks like a B&W pic with the truck in the shop.

Whichever rims you don't want, just send them to me...

I think the Harley front-end looks good with your dark gray paint scheme. Nice!

Looks good. I had some wheels like that on my 01, and I really liked them. They were only on the 04 model trucks, so there aren't that many out there.

I thought this was odd, but when I installed the rims I couldn't use the lug nuts, did they change the thread pitch between 03 and 04?

I think it is just those harley wheels. Because you can see the lugnuts and those wheels don't use a center cap, they have different lugnuts.
