I am not a fan of white, but I gotta give Kudo's where Kudo's are due. That white truck is sharp! Just enough exterior mods to make it pop and not look cheap, in my opinion. Well done......

I will start. Mine are:

22x14 American Force Shields -76 offset (9.5" lip)
37x13.50x22 trail grapplers
Was your truck on American force FB page a while back?

Ya it's been on there a few times. It will be in their new catalog later this year as well.

I don't think he's been to Houston; forget Texas. A big thing down here to have rims that they call Swangers, 83s, or 84s. Most of them are 30 spoke, but it came from the Cadillacs back in the 80s. They have a set that they call Gorilla Pokes & the spokes stick out like the chariot wheels that Kurt Douglas rode in on the Sparticus movie. They poke out maybe 4 inches or so. If I can find a pic I'll post it up. But it's like HTXfX4 said; we're in Texas. Everything is bigger & they don't care about that. The car & truck scene is unreal down here. The laws respect that.

Maybe you would be when someone driving behind you sues you for the damage your slung onto their car/truck?

Think.
Really?! Sued?! Lol. This is a joke right? Can you sue an 18 wheeler when he spits a rock into your windshield & cracks the hell out of it? So why would the OP be worried about someone behind him suing for something? This thread is hilarious.

They have some that stick out even further than those now. We call a car like that a "slab". Candy paint, TV screens everywhere, 5th wheel on bumper, pop trunk, a trunk full of speakers, & last but not least; neon lights. No car show needed. Just head out to a park on a nice Sunday & they'll be 10-15 deep just riding for the hell of it.
