well i re-bled the brakes tonight and all is well, stops on a dime again.
went out on a little test drive to make sure it was all good just in time to see a nice sunset at 8:30pm i love these days getting longer and longer.
I think i've also picked out my new summer wheels. i'm sticking with 16" due to cost as i already have tires. i would love to upsize to 17 or 18's but it does not make sense with also buying a new(er) f-150 here soon. So my current Ultra Rouge's with keep my blizzak snow tires on and be my winter set.
i've been eyeing the Ulta Crusher and i think thats the one's i'll end up with.

I'm looking to go to a 17x9s and run 285/70R17s instead of the stock 17x7.5s and 265/70R17s

new wheels came in, they are loaded in the pickup to get dropped off at the tire place in the morning. then i'll mount them up on the truck after work.
I sorta wish they did not have as much black but its too late now. i still think they are a good looking wheel even if a bit dark.
