I wouldnt say they all look terrible, but I do agree that, at least for the 04-08, they dont seem to have the same look as other brands of trucks. I see chevys and gmcs rolling around with nice clean drops but all the fords, well, just look lowered. The stance just doesnt seem to turn heads the same way. Guess it a suspension/chasis thing.

Although I have seen some 04-08's with a 4/6 drop that I think look hella clean but everytime I inquire about that drop I keep getting pointed to 3/5. Still cant get a straight answer on why.

I don't like lowered Fords as much as I love lowered Chevys! But there still aren't many around here. Both local to me and on this forum.

I keep trying to egg some people on to do it right and bag there damn truck and screw the static drop ****. Static is cool but nothing has the power of bags! If you are willing to put in the time you can tuck the **** out of 24s with a little bit of work.

Think what you may. Everyone has different taste. Big blingy wheels arent me. I opted for 18's to keep my ride quality, and give it a sporty look (imo) such as the L's have.



You must not know what clean is, theres a good handful who look real clean. To each their own.

To determine what a "clean look" is, is hella hard, aye. I can see how the truck above has a clean look and can appreciate it, too. But some ppl, not me though, would consider a clean look to be 100% stock, while some a 100% slammed, tucked, bagged,etc. Like stated earlier, to each their own and all we can do is try to help eachother out and point a person in the right direction in what they are looking for for their truck.

Those are very nice. Too bad they dont offer a set in all chrome. Im trying to get away from the machined silver as it is haha.
