Re: 2fun502

Anyone think if I painted the entire truck silver, get rid of the fender chrome and chrome molding down the side. Paint all trim, grill and bumpers flat black. Run a 15x5 front and 15x10 rear in these wheels " http://www.jegs.com/p/Cragar/Cragar-...75360/10002/-1 ".

Think that would look good? Plus the truck is getting lowered another 1''-1.5'' front and another 5 in rear.

I think it would look better with Centerlines but thats just me, other than that sounds awesome.
