New shoes for my sweetheart
Well, I ordered the wheels last August and they showed up in a month along with the front tires, the rear tires ended up taking 6 months to come in but they were installed in July prior to my "welcome home". She rides a lot better and looks completely different, but this definitely set some wheels in motion for her next changes. I'll post more pictures when I get my computer home. Wheels are 18x8 and 20x10 Billet Specialties Soft-lip Ventec dishes with spinners. Tires are 245/45zr18's(I believe) and 305/40zr20's in Goodyear F 1's.

Re: New shoes for my sweetheart
I agree that it doesn't look quite right on most 73-87 unless they are really low. I think that this being a stepside makes the difference. Regardless of why, it does look good...
