Bubba, That is a BEEOOOTIFUL truck. I REALLY like it. I wouldn’t have thought to use that dark a color for the rims but I really like them. Ordinarily I’d say put the ribbed slim beauty rings on them but I kinda think it looks best just as it is!

I agree with MPC to move the wheel weights. Glad you’ll do that. Please don’t change anything else, it’s perfect!
