Yeah the rear was driving me nuts!! Didnt actually order the spacers till I got the wheels and noticed just how far out the front is haha looks way better now. So much better I deleted my old pics haha..
yeah the black mixed with chrome, i like it. and i was thinking about blacking out the chrome on my grill after looking at yours but im not sure, i already repainted the insert and taped off the chrome to leave it. looks much better and i just did 35% tint and i like it on the white background. could only go so dark because of the cops hahaha. and the tail lights i would keep them, i think ill keep mine probably unless they were only lightly tinted and looked like it got done the right way. oh yeah thats good glad you like the look of your front and rear wheels better, hopefully mine will come out that good!

I got mine from ebay for $27 w free shipping! So I still have my chrome one. I love the black though. Had to use my clips and emblem. used some wd40 and then i polished the clips w my rotary tool so theyre not so rusty.

nice i did 5 on top of my stock in back so its like 0 and i did 30 in front then 20 for the front banner of the windshield. yeah wouldnt go darker than 30 on the doors hah yeah i think non tinted tails is the way to go thanks ! good luck man!

Youre Welcome, the lugs they come with are great too. I have drove about 120 miles and they were all at 100 ft lb torque still.

oh nice sweet deal, mine should be in by wednesday this week, i dont mean to bother you with questions but which lug nuts did you use for what? did you use your existing lug nuts to put the tire onto the spacer or the spacer onto the truck?
thanks
