Default New rims, Kmc Diesels lots of pics

I got a new set of rims!
18x9 KMC XD diesels (XD766) 5.0" backspacing
With a used but in good condition BFG A/T KO 285/65/18 (32.4")

Got an awesome deal on the rims $609 + $20 shipping.
I had messaged the ebay seller and he didn't realize he had them up so cheap in his ebay store. He raised the price, but still sold them to me for $609.

Got the tires off Craigslist and talked the Dude down to $225.

I was worried about the tires rubbing, and it's close but no rub.
I'm gonna put a 1.5" level kit on her though.

Here's a before pic,

Looks good, but would probably look better with the white letters out (I am kinda baised!). Still looks better than before, it fills up those huge flares better.

Once I finish debadging, then put on the new black badges, the white letters would ruin my blue and black theme.

Black and blue? You are trying to make your truck look beat up? Just kidding with you, My truck is purple and orange....Sunburnt and beat up (That basically explains the condition its in, too)...

I like the rims, they look good. I also am a fan of fender flares, but those are a bit big for my taste.
