Well, I got the wheels today, bought the plasti-dip, cleaned and painted the wheels, and mounted them tonight. The truck looks awesome! I will post some pictures tomorrow.

I knew it was coming! haha, Here are a couple of pics. The truck is filthy and it is overcast so they are not the best, but gives you guys an idea of how the truck looks. I will have to take some better pictures when the weather is nicer.

4 cans of plasti-dip. Three good coats. That stuff is really easy to use, and looks very uniform when it dries.

Here is another picture I took earlier with a little bit of sunlight, and a straight on shot of the wheels.

Haha, thanks for the complement. I appreciate it. I figured I would get razzed from some of the guys on here that are anti-lowering guys, but I decided to go with something new. It is pretty simple to undo anything that I have done so if I ever decided to change my mind again down the road, that's ok too. It's only money right?? HA!

From this before:



To what is now in my sig. I couldn't be happier with the look. I think this color of truck looks awesome with the black accent, and sporty because of the color too.
