Cool, a set of 4 is 1299, not 1299 each. The first I can live with, a bit steep but acceptable but if that's the individual price I am not getting those.

I always think powder coating is dope. I'm up in the air on this one, though. I've been over chrome for a little while now, but still love the way chrome looks on the color of your truck. That's really one of the few colors I like chrome with, personally.

In my opinion...if you want to drastically improve the look of your truck...keep the wheels as are, but loose the low pro tires and get some REAL tires like the...

Toyo Open Country A/T's: http://www.toyo.com/docs/tires/tires...=lgt-suv-truck

OR

Nitto Terra Grapplers: http://www.nittotire.com/#index%2Eti...appler%2Esizes

Think about it...that's what I'd do. I've had sick rims like you before with low pros and now that I'm back on some real tires I'll never own low pros again.

I finally got the rims last weekend and the trucks off getting detailed so I will post pics as soon as I get it back. I was also thinking of putting a 2/4 drop on it to get rid of some of the excess space in the wheel wells. Any recomendations?

Pics to come

Go with a 2/4 drop.If you want a nice drop with not sacrificing the Use of the truck(load/use etc.) go with some drop leafs and get the drop shackled for a nice 2/5 drop.Really makes the truck shine well with 22's.If you tow and haul stuff too you can add an air assist airbag to the mix.

those wheels arent my favorite, they look nice, but ive never been a fan of the lug caps...and to note...the rim is black and machined..and the cap looks chrome....i dont get it, i thought they should match.

can anyone photoshop those onto a black 2006 4X4 sport?
i was gonna get those in 20" and wrap them in 35x13.5 MT ATZ's
2.5" level and 3"body lift...down the line a 3" suspension, maybe higer

Alright wheels are on, any opinions? mmstar23, the lug nut covers are not chrome there black & machined just like the rest of the rim. Metal too, I've see alot of plastic ones.
