Re: Photoshop this Truck
That dually looks good the way it is, but if you painted the wheels body color with polished trim rings and polished center caps, that would look clean and classy. I'd paint the mirrors body color too. And if you,re still wanting to do a contrast color, maybe some silver on some suspension to match the grille. Tan or orange wheels would look good also.

Re: Photoshop this Truck
not to change the point of the thread, but are those lift block in the front? if so you should really loose them and just put lift springs on it, thats dangerous.
and btw i think the brown and black look nice they way they are |

Re: Photoshop this Truck
I like the lift wheel tire combo. How much lift is that? What kind of lift? And what wheel tire combo are you running? Looks tuff!

As for the tires, I got 36X13.50x20 IROK Radials... Super Swampers. I LOVE THEM. I would recomend those tires to anyone that asked. Those rims are 20's and I got the 20's strictly because I can have a higher load rating for the constant hauling of a 15,000 lb dump trailer when loaded. Plus they look so SWEET. I have about 6,000 miles on the tires now and a rotation with every oil change. No noticeable wear at all. THE ORIGINAL TRUCK IS NOT MINE, only the one that is about 3/4 of the way down the first page that says HERE SHE IS, GETTING HER READY FOR PAINT NOW... That is my truck, the other belongs to another member on the board. Also attached her below just to clarify... This is my truck:

Re: Photoshop this Truck
I do not have lift blocks on the front of the truck in the picture above; however I have considered adding a 1' lift block in the front offered by ORD... A 1" would give me the rake that I want, and wouldn't be any more dangerous than the stock setup with the amount of stiffness in my beefed up leaf springs... and, it's only 1", so I'm not too concerned
