Re: got the 20's on (pics)

I like em too (the lights). Good wheel choice also-especially the color with the green. I almost like the bumper guards for some reason.

A little off topic but, If I ever do a 4x4 (which I definately can't see doing in the near future), I'm gonna weld the guards to the bumper, remove the impact strip and fill it's holes, then have the whole thing rechromed. Been thinking about that for a long time actually.

Re: got the 20's on (pics)

Wheels look good man! Good choice. I'm on the fence with the lights. I like the fact that they are different, but at the same time they just don't look right with the lowered truck. May look different though in person.

Re: got the 20's on (pics)

Those look killer on that truck. LOVE the color. The cab lights, keep them. Bumper guards, to much clutter imo. Are those Coy's? If so, Did you have to grind your front hub down before they fit correctly? That's a great looking truck you have.

Re: got the 20's on (pics)

The truck is great looking. Ever since the first look I got of it, I have liked it. The lights really work for it. And now with the wheels, it really looks like you took "Grandpa's truck" and brought it into the modern era. Great Progress!

Re: got the 20's on (pics)

Looks great... wheel choice fits very well. But I'm with some others... lose the lights, oversized antenna, bumper gaurds and the chrome rain gaurds (JMO).

Re: got the 20's on (pics)

Truck loos great . Keep the green . If the cab lights are growing on you , keep em also . The world would be a boring place if every truck was (insert color) and had the body mods or mix of factory parts . Looks like a Coddington wheel that Discount sells under their house brand . Nice Choice .

Looks like another great day in Seattle! Make sure you don't have any leaks around the windshield, assuming the floor is in good shape now...

Re: got the 20's on (pics)

Those wheels have me puzzled. Don't get me wrong, I really like them. I just kept thinking they looked like Coys.

Sure enough, I looked them up and they are Coy's. I don't know if MB makes them, or Coy's does, but they are the same wheel.

Oddly enough MB does not show them on their site. They are only on the Discount Direct site listed as MB's.
