One thread is about new wheels and tires, and one is about a roush grill asking everyone with or without a badge so I dont see how I can combine either of them and get a thread going for separate things without causing confusion. That also causes a problem in the search function if anyone were to be looking for any info from either thread topic. So i'm not sure what you want me to do.. maybe you want me to post someone else's truck pics and pose it as my own so you can look at a different truck with two totally different thread topics.
If you dont like it dont post in it.
I guess next time anyone wants to post a thread they will have to make sure that they can only put pics in one even though the pics are for two totally different parts of thier own truck. Go pee in someone elses threads there buddy thanks.

I saw a red Supercab with a bottom stripe like that a week or so ago in Clifton Park but it had a 5.5' bed and not the 6.5' like yours and I dont think it was an FX4.

Do you have a leveling kit? If so which one?

Also I forgot to mention the nittos had a snow try out today and they are the best tires I ever driven with in the winter weather, 4x4 wasn't needed at all and on the way home from work two deer ran out in front of me and I had to slam on the brakes and the roads were horrible. Truck stopped on a dime. I was impressed.

calm down guys its fine to have multiple threads on diffrent things about the same truck now as for your rims .. very nice they loook good if ur truck had more chrome the chrome center caps would look B A but u got the black and red thing going on and it looks good run with it and paint the center caps i dont think you will regret it

I actually have two sets of caps, one came with the wheels and are not so nice someone drilled into them and attached wire to secure them to the lugs so they couldnt be stolen, and the face of them was all messed up but.. I painted them same as wheels but then found these on ebay for 20.00 so I used them have to paint them still. In person I actually like them the way they are. Plus I'm not really excited to go spend another 20.00 in paint to do them, lol! I may just through the crappy painted ones on to see if i like em.

The wheels turned out good. I think it will look even better once you get those center caps done

The paint looks like the teflon coated wheels American Racing is putting out.


You are making me think about painting the center cap's on these black

Really I was thinking it was you but then I saw the shorter bed.

Maybe I should just get the 2" leveling kit instead of the 2.5" I was thinking about after looking at your pics.

Thanks for the compliments! I probably wont do the center caps till summer. Its too cold out now to paint them.

Haha thats weird, lol! I have to say I really think all the leveling kits are the same height. A guy I know has the 2.5" and I have the 2" and they are equal. I chose the 2" because I wanted to have a little less awkward ball joint angle, but either they sent me the wrong kit or it isn't much different.. One guy came in to my work and happened to have a leveling kit because he has a plow on his f150 and he claimed it was a 1.5" and it was higher then mine.. Just go with the 2" its a happy medium!
