Default new shoes.... to much bling though.....

got new shoes for the ford. still unsure about the rims, but the price was right.

40x13.5R18 baja claw radials on 18x10 dick cepek rims. 1400 bucks.
like i said, rims sorta dont look right on the truck and i dont like the aluminum part for wheeling, but nobody sells 18 inch steel wheels yet. i am not afraid to scratch them up. probly paint them flat black of somthing else.

not chrome!!! they are polished. i cant wait to get em dirty so they dont look so good. but really dont think that is gona happen till spring. to the close eye u will notice no front driveshaft. it is out right now getting a copy made and balanced finally. been over a year with unbalanced driveshafts. front one had about 1/4 inch wobble in it.

heres a dirty pic for ya lucas. dont worry, the truck is no show toy. built for off road. just incase u was thinking that since u are new here.
