Re: what do you guys think

Ok, I know its not a choice that was offered, but what about black?? If not, then I'd have to 'go green' as well. Killer lookin' truck any way you decide to do it IMO.

Re: what do you guys think

Im for the green wheels, as far as stance id say bring down the back a little, make it more level, just my opinion, 3rd is too low though

Re: what do you guys think

Your truck looks awesome as is....but, not to be contrary, it would also look good with the white wheels. Something different.

Re: what do you guys think

I like your trucks stance, how far did you lower the F. and R. ? And your truck looks really cool as it is.

Nah, like it is now is perfect. Love the stance. I was going to go 5/3, so now I know what it looks like.

I really like the clean look of your truck.

First Pic.....The Green wheels go nice with the single color cab.
Need nothing but some forward momentum.

Last pic....please don't butcher it and make a belly flopper out of it.

Re: what do you guys think

I really love exactly how it sits right now. Wheels and Stance. How much is it lowered?

Re: what do you guys think

I know it wasn't on the menu, but I'm with Protrash... BLACK!! I think black wheels look pretty darn cool on a solid color truck with NO WHEEL CAPS - chrome lugs, and the wide whites. (maybe a thin trim ring too...) And maybe a little lower...

But, I have to say - I really like it as is too, like everyone else - already looks great, but just since you asked, that's my 2 cents.
