yea i agree with jackedup

get some cragar SS's...u cant beat those wheels


wide chrome 15s or 16s would look good...since your truck isnt bagged, it would look really good

haha james is too sick. lol

well guys i think im going to go for the hot rod look.
Im gonna get some cragars i think or welds, and get a flat black paint job with a red flame pin stripe, and sum little chrome mirrors. and be loud and fast and rod style.
just have to make sure i get a decent amount of money for my cobras.

anyone know where i could get a good deal on some rims?
v8 whats up?

shaved some.
i love smoking turbo hondas.

i say just beef up the tires in the rear and leave it. personally i'd rather have cobra r's then vintage or race wheels. those kind of wheels kinda date your truck and blends in with the "sons of the soil" if you know what i mean haha(simpsons quote). keep the wheels you've got now and just widen that tread
i'm lower then you
