Looks great! Did you use wheel adapters? What are the size and back space on those?

Ya had to get 1.3 inch adapter/spacers for them to work. The offset on the rims was +35 in the front and +40 in the rear.

I think it looks great the way it is. Only thing I would do is drop the nose just enough to give it a nice rake.

Re: Got some SS rims finally!!

Being "old school", I'm not into the look of "shoot-me" wheels, but I have to say those wheels look sharp. Nice truck, too!

Looks great, I knew I wasn't the only one with that idea. I wanted a set for my CCSB project.
