Icon10 Got My new Wheels On... YEEHAW!!!
I got my wheels on, I got my wheels on. Woowhoo! They are 15x10 Eagle Alloy 185's. I had to trim my valance a little, but it needs to be trimmed a little more for when the front end flexes. Let me know what you think.

Before(I will miss these wheels):

After(Ooooo they're shiny!):

They are a little, I never thought 11.5" tires would do that on a 10" rim.

Those wheels look awesome!

Do you have to watch out for what salt and winter roads will do to them?

Looks nice!

I will say, I'll miss the look of the hotwheels rims (can't remember the actual name of em.. oh well) just because they made the truck stand out and unique, but the new one's look great!

Whats next on your list!?!?!?!
