Fabulous red, nice wheel (looks like Twisted Vista), but the size ratio is all wrong... they really need just a little more rubber. I'm not big on staggered wheel sizes, but if you've got to do it, how about 18/20?

I think those are Boyd Rodders, and I like the size. Looks good to me.

Hood hinges will need to go away long before you get the truck super-low. Their mounting position just above the wheel opening is a big problem. You can only trim so much out of the leading edge of the hinge before it no longer supports the weight of the hood properly. Two common solutions are hinges on the firewall (which is what I did) and doing reverse tilt hood.
