Re: before and after-need a laugh?

We're laughing at the purple color on the truck right? Or am I missing something?

Re: before and after-need a laugh?

Nice use of colors... it uh needs something besides a center cap. Drop it. Yeah that's it. It needs a drop and it will look much better.
Those 6 lug wheels looked real good on it. You're ready for something different?

psst. You're not really going out in public with it like that are ya? JK

Re: before and after-need a laugh?

It could be worse, you could have rusty white spokes and white letter tires with the sidewalls curbed so many times they look like whitewalls.

I've always said that wheel and tire choice makes or breaks a car/truck and you just proved it in spades.
