Okay, so I had to take a major double take when I was walking to class the other day and you passed haha.. the wheels look great man, pictures don't ever do your truck justice. Not to thread jack, but you won't see my ranger around anymore come the end of the week.. Im trading in for an F-150.

wheels are dun. i just need to wipe off the dust from the satin clear coat with a damp microfiber maybe some polishing compound, You guys think i should put polishing compound on the part i painted black? i dunno what to do yet lol

aside that, the paintjob is done. Im not running in the winter so i might not even mount the 33s on them til the spring because its just a waste of money as of right now lol

Thanks guys. I think it was worth it. it will make the truck look different and if i ever wanna go back, i can just sand it all and polish but that would suck lol.
