Re: what yall think

One overlooked pot hole and bye bye tire and rim. A waste of money IMHO.

Re: what yall think

That truck sits perfect!! Did they tub it out and shorten the rear end?

......idk about that blue stripe. looks too nascar'ish with the blue stripe to me. The color combo already looks insane.

Re: what yall think

Thats a very nice truck, and I really like wide rear tires and rims. Personally I feel that wheels would look better with more backspace. I like deep dish, but feel that they are not symmetrical with the front wheels.

Nice. Not what I would do but she is pretty.

I tend to be utilitarian though.

Re: what yall think

That truck is awesome! "Smokin tires and lightin fires" is a perfect caption for a truck with 720hp and looking that good. I just hope mine looks that good when its done.

Re: what yall think

i love the wheel/tire combo. i do think it needs to lose the locks, handles, and drip rail though.
