Nice looking truck! Wheels look great. I like the PTM fender flares. Were those stock, or did you add those?

Thanks for the compliments everyone! Very appreciated. I'm happy with the way it came out.

I enjoy it. Its very mild (Touring version) which is all I want. My other car is pretty loud, so the truck is going to stay mild. I dont like the chrome tips out the rear, so I'm having it modified back out the stock location with dual matte black slash cut tips. I need to make room for the Hellwig swaybar in the rear.

Yeah I've been considering it. Might do a red and black one.

It does. I had a real time trying to get them to line up when I installed it. Now that I'm planning on modifying the exhaust in a month or two (see comment above about side exit), I'm not too worried about it. But its been bugging me for months now lol.

Thanks! They are stock PTM due to the appearance package.

Thanks again for the compliments. The truck is almost complete, or at least I keep trying to tell myself that.

Truck looks BAD *****.

Thank you.
No trimming at all, and right now I have no rubbing.

Quick back story. I started with the 305/55/20 tires on my factory FX4 rims at stock ride height. On very hard turns going up hill I could just barely get some rubbing happening. Wasnt anything to worry about.

Fast forward. I take the tires off the stock wheels, put them on the Methods and drive it home. Rubbing pretty hard any time I was just over 3/4th turning, especially if I was braking and turning or hitting any bumps. It was literally about to rub the fender flares off the truck.

I dealt with that about a week and finally install the Bilstein shocks at the 3rd setting (~1.5" level) and its been perfect ever since. No rubbing, ride is amazing, and the truck is almost perfect level.

Looks great! Really makes me second guess my tire choice.
