nice, take your time on getting your truck exactly like you want it. I took me 2 years to get mine where i wanted it. You have AWESOME wheels, good reliable tires, when the time comes and you have extra money get some 31x10.50s and level her out. Looks much better bro!

Those wheels will look good on your truck especially with a drop kit.
