So what exactly is wrong with this brand of taillight?

@Josh E So far it rides pretty nice. It still needs some shocks all the way around. I haven't had it on the interstate yet. I don't think they'll be that loud. I had some boggers when I was a kid. Nothing is loud after that.

What an upgrade! Looks great.

What is the backspacing on those? I dont see 10" wide wheels under the fenders that much very often. Looks awsome!

@olyelr I think it's right around 4.5-5 inches. I could find out for sure if need be. Yeah there's definitely a decline in 10" wide wheels. It was a little sketchy when I first saw them. I didn't think they were going to fit. Glad I don't need a leveling kit either.

It's not the brand of taillight, it's what they look like

Well they were on there when I bought it. And as long as they're not going to melt on me, I'd say I've got higher priorities. It is paid off now though so maybe I'll do a little more too it. But I think I need new headlights before I worry about the "look" of my taillights.

Yeah you're right, your headlights look pretty oxidized/cloudy. A nice new set of heads and tails would make that truck look brand new.

It's your truck. I think the heads look good as long as they ain't cloudy.
