Do you plan on parting ways with your OEM wheels......

I'm kind of excited to get them on. I think they will look awesome, but you just don't know until they are on the truck.

Nope, not planning on parting with them. I still have my original Gen 1 rims. They had about 50 miles on them....

These graphics are landing at my door tomorrow, so hope to get them on this weekend. Courtesy of RappyGraphics.... The plan for these will be on the lower panel of the rear doors. Pics coming when completed. Weather is turning bad later today, so that may hinder my progress.

Beautiful truck I'm super jelious! I'm not a fan of all the stickers but to each his own - your the one who paid for it and it makes it personal not like the other raptors you will see in the road. Really love the color.

Added the driving mode icon decals to the bottom of the rear door. I like how they turned out. Not everybody's cup of tea, but works for me! New wheels will be here later this week, so I'll update you with those pics when I get them.

I washed the truck this morning before going to Discount Tire to get my new wheels mounted and installed. So of course while it's in there it started raining and got crappy so much so keeping it clean. Well, it difinitely changed the look. It's a more industrial/off road look. I'm anxious to get it clean and see it on a nice sunny day. Anyway they are Fuel Hostage III's (D568) 17x9 with a +20mm offset. Likewise, they set out about a 1/2" father than stock, so not that noticeable. Matte Anthracite with a black ring and black lug nuts.

Looks good RedX. How do you like the paint protection now that you have had it for awhile?.
