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.

The fruits of your labor, paid off, at least it paid off for the truck, lol. Looks sweet, good going..Not sure on the advice about the tires Glenn, they both look sharp, subscribing on the feedback from other members..

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!

Thanks for the complements guys.

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.

Must be Jeffrey, my other lug nuts worked just fine, and you have to have a special key to get them off so nobody will still them hopefully...lol
