Paint over the red and it would look hot. Sorry you asked.

If he'd have done the red letter General Grabbers instead of the Toyos, it would have really set it off...

Very nice. Gives it that one of a kind look. Never have seen those wheels anywhere before either.

If your gonna run a pin stripe down the side, why would you run it through the door handles?

I like the stance, though. What is it, 6-8" with 35's on 20's?

What size wheels do you have?

I agree with the placement of the stripe being a little odd.. The only big thing that stood out was the Ram badge on the grille looks like a clown nose... I do like the stance though.

It appears 2wd which ruins it for me and would look a lot better with the badges on it. I dont like how they took the sides of the cross hair off.

17s and I'd have smaller if it'd clear the calipers. Off-road is all about sidewall flex, floatation and footprint which you need all the sidewall you can get to achieve it.

In the low country you can always tell who uses his truck to hunt/fish/work around the farm/etc. and who is just for looks by looking at the tire/wheel ratio.

You ever notice all those competition mud and rock climbing rigs have like 38" or larger tires on 15" wheels? There is a reason.

True, but the 49's and 54's seam to work pretty darn well wrapped around 20's
