Kickin it
I have a question for you, and unfortunately I think it's going to come off as me being a jackass no matter how I try to ask ... that said, I'm genuinely curious, and hope you don't mind me asking ...
I haven't gone and looked to see exactly what width your wheels are, or what size your tires are ... but it's clear in the pic above that the wheels are significantly wider than the tires, causing the sidewalls to angle in towards the center of the tire/wheel.
What I want to know is if this is something you did on purpose? If so, is it just for the look, or is there some functional purpose to this?
I see this "situation" on some vehicles every once in a while, and have always wondered why someone would want a tire that's more narrow than the wheel, especially on a truck with MT tires on it.

Thanks for the compliments! It's been a fun build, still had a little ways to go to be finished. Here's a couple pics I took just now. Daughters cars were in the way. Let me know if you want any more

Must be a blast to rip it. Parking not so much underground. LOL
Here's my latest mods. I think this would suit your ride fine!!

I like that hood!! I've thought about one, but have a few other things I wanna do first. Good looking truck!

Its the Cervini Functional Ram Air Hood. It's both aggressive and refined in its look but of course I'm biased. They are in the process of releasing a functional under hood duct that makes it a functional Ram Air. Which is why I'm reviewing it. Have a look at the thread and let me know how you think it turned out~!!
I posted some good pics on the thread of before and after.
