i got new wheels!!!

the truck project has been going slowly, due to work being so hectic(im not complaining, it allows more project money), but it really feels nice to gather one more piece of the puzzle. ive been looking for these wheels for some time now, knowing that these were the ones i wanted. i even had some guys photoshop the wheels onto a truck so i could see how they looked. i am stoked. i just got them 15 minutes ago, and i couldnt resist taking some pics with a fender atop to get the feel. here they are, let me know what you think.




btw, they are 20" enkie wheels from a toyota tundra xs-p, wrapped in 295/45r20 tires.

Re: i got new wheels!!!

well it wasnt exactly a "buy"

you guys will like this, even though it was tough for me. i traded my very low mileage, very dependable, but very unsellable 1991 fullsize bronco xlt for these.

go ahead and make fun, yes i traded a ford for wheels. haha. but it was a good truck the entire time i had it (4 years)

BS should be fine, drop should be fine, my tires may be a little big, but i can keep the truck suspended a bit if need be. god i love having a lift. that would be great, so i can see how they sit inside the fenders. of course it wont be a true telltale, since im using a 2001 frame, but pics on a VERY NICE truck would be good nonetheless
