Rate My Truck (part 2) & Some Direction Please

Ok, I took some of your guys advice and disregarded some others. I agree that the black hood was too much, especially after I put on the flares. I included the original picture for reference. I am wondering what your guys thoughts are now that I switched the design a bit and got the lettering done.

I am planning on a leveling kit and some new tires in the next few weeks. The biggest tire I can go on these rims is about 33", you guys think that will fill in the flares enough or should I bite the bullet and get new rims and some 34" nitro terra tires?

Lastly, I am looking into a new billet grille, you guys think I should go black or polished, and if I go new rims should I go chrome with black accents or black with chrome accents.

Please rate my truck and feel free to add any other thoughts you might have. Thank you all in advance!

Hey!!!!..100% better!!....looks more evened out

I have 3" leveling kit with flares and I have 34" tires and they look wayyyyyy to small because of bushwacker flares. id go to a 35" 12.5 tires, if your adding a leveling kit
but at least go 34" and you might have to add Billet spacers, to push the new rims and tires out to fill the wheel wells....BUT with a 2" levleing kit, and 34" it maybe ok depanding on your back spacing.

Im a chrome guy I got the XTR package on my truck, so id say...LOL... chrome grill and chrome & Black wheels to break up some of the black.......
Im going Rolling Big Power rims 94R chrome with black inserts and they have the same wheel in black with chrome inserts, its a great looking wheel....Im adding to my truck......

The truck looks alot better, not so over done!!....



.Im including a pic of my truck so you can see what the 34" tires look like with the flares......

Thanks Grandpa!

I had a feeling I was going in the wrong direction before, hence asking you truck guru's. Thanks for the feedback!

Im not digging the paint scheme but I think a new set of wheels will tie it all together better.

Black05lariat 02-18-2013 06:32 AM

not a huge fan but it does look better than the whole hood painted still not sure why anyone wants to do that to a new truck. but hey it's your truck

I don't like white, super cabs, stripes, Bushwhacker flares, and too much black.

I like the headlights.

As long as you like it.

It's a truck, I think you have too much time on your hands, you need to stop.

Chrome wheels with black accents.

Or machined wheels with black accents.

I think it looks good.

Well, your just a bag full of cheer! It's a business truck, its meant to get attention, I do home shows and am at a lot of job sites with plain white vans & trucks. I wanted something that would get noticed.

I think it looks great. Nice job,especially the tailgate with your lights blended.
