What size tires are those? And have you ever thought about removing the roof rack? Takes like 20 minutes and is easy as hell to do. I did it to mine and it looks a lot cleaner/smoother.

the tires are 275 25 28 toyo proxes and believe me when i got them i wanted the 295's but the guy i got em from wanted the 295s for the set he had so he swapped these onto them, but it actually rides great, i just take the clean streets and stay away from ****** roads, but its not gonna be driven much but on weekends

and for the roof rack, that was my plan all along i was just waiting till i brought it to work to paint it to do everything (put on my new grill, lambos, and all the headlights and shit so that way i dont have to put them on and remove them for paint again

but thanks guys gotta get back in the garage and get these wires for the sounds ran allready i been slackin today haha

Very nice rims.....i'm not to big on the lift kits but it still looks good. I know the paint is going to be dangerous if you killing em with the 8's. Keep us posted man.

Looks good.

I would have just put meatier tires on it. Sine you do body work why don't you work your fenders and do so? Can also drop the front a little too to give it the swag.

I contemplating lambos myself but I FOR SHIT SURE I WANT SUICIDE DOORS IN THE REAR! You should do that and post a write up. I get the concept but I am too ***** to do so. If not that well be next years plan along with a Paint job if money is good and my maintence costs are down.

I love girls who are into trucks just as much as I love ****** em in them. If you love you will get her a new set of rims.

I have a 35 in the front...not a tire guy. Should have gone with a 45 that will be when the fronts need to be replaced!
