Hope I'm posting in the right place. I'll be uploading these pics under my gallery when I get home but in the mean time I just wanted to share some pics of my truck!

It recently got upgraded with new shoes, socks, side burns, mustache, shades and love handles (like the owner) :lol: oh yeah ... it needs to be dropped but I need to get some wheels for my other ride... and besides, I don't think it looks that bad w/that huge gap, does it?

I'm really liking it the way it's turning out. Soon I'll be getting a gotee (already ordered), new denture and braces 8) (you guys try to figure that out LOL). So what do you guys think?

How it used to look:

This is how it looks NOW

Although it's not my particular style, it looks good. How does it drive? What's the tire size?

 

[that1mexguy]

thanks man. It actually drives pretty good with its original suspension and since the gap is huge well I have no problems going over bumps or anything, but i do have to slow down way more. They are 22's, tire 265/35/22 ... at 1st I was hesitant about the 35 low profile but it's actually pretty good. So far I'm extremely happy

Big improvement. I bet it turns a lot of heads. I bet you're not looking forward to replacing those tires. BTW, what do they run?

Nice truck and wheels. Thanks for posting them. I assumed the tires are Z rated. Have you defeated the speed limiter on the truck? Just curious.

Well yes, i do get a LOT of compliments and I catch a lot of people checking it out as I'm rolling ... and about replacing them, no biggie... I actually sell wheels and tires on the side. I would love to be a vendor for this site but since we are just starting we dont really have a big selection. Most of our wheels are the bling bling type and I don't see that much around here (then again I'm a noob) and also, to be a vendor I need to pay right? well for me to pay I need to sell 1st and there's still a lot of things we need to get... but if anyone out there looking for some wheels and I can help (without breaking any rules or agreements, etc), let me know and I'll do whatever I can to help.

Naw man, my buddy got a ticket driving my truck the other day (we carpool to work and I was tired as heck after only getting like 3 hrs of sleep studying for a midterm) and we don't really want to push it. My truck is getting known around my area so I rather just chill... maybe one day when I get drunk I'll max it out ... JK!

Got it all trail ready eh? Looks good, I wouldn't personally do it but hey, to each his own. I would imagine that with a 35 series tire you probably feel every bump in the road

Looks great, nice rims :tu:

 

[edexcsc]

pimpalicious ...I actually like the black rim on black truck. :tu:

Nice. Maybe next time some bigger rubber will fill the gap more and provide a nicer ride. To bad you are so far away I am looking for some 20's or 22's have not decieded which yet.

Sweet!! Don't drive drunk. You might loose the truck.

It isn't my style either. But, I am glad that you like it!! That is what is important.

I recently installed a 3" leveling kit on the front of my 04 DC. left a gap about like your tuck has now. remedy . . . 33" GT M/T radials, gap filled. Your truck looks good now but... When you lower your truck, you are gong to have one nice looking ride :tu: I love those rims and tires.

 

[benbeaux]

Looks good. I'd debadge to clean up the lines a little bit. Gloss black calipers & drums would be the cherry on top.

 

[tampawright]

not bad, not my style. I say scrap the nerf bars and lower it

 

[Bacaruda73]

Nice ride! Its good to see a street truck. We do not see to many of them on this site. I would like to drop my truck also, nothing to dramatic just a nice lower stance.
