Well firstly I have to say, I am very very proud of myself for finally being able to do such a thing to a vehicle, so for 21yrs old I am proud of myself to achieve this. I have never ever been able to afford aftermarket wheels and bigger tires with my past vehicles. I finally was lucky enough to do so, and I checked with a bud at a local customs shop and he helped me get this set for $2,350 out the door. Very very pleased, and the new look is exactly what I had pictured. Ever since 05FX4 and mblouir got their wheels and tires, I have highly admired the look and stance of their vehicles and wished someday I could do the same. Well that day finally arrived.

The wheels are XD Monsters in 20x9, +18 offset/5.71 backspacing, the tires are Toyo Open Country M/Ts in 33x12.5. I love these wheels, they are incredible. The tires are awesome also, the mean aggressive stand still stance, the excellent handling on-road, and the sweet low hum the give between 30 - 50 is awesome.

Well enough with the book, here we go.

 

The +18 offset and 5.71 backspace is perfect, not tucked in all the way, and not sticking out a yard.





And as for the Generals... well, I got 14k out of them I guess but.. still pathetic.

 

And I just found a few more that were on the camera.

 

Looks sweet!!! I was going to do this to mine too and ended up paying off credit card debt instead....

 

Looks good man, Ive had my toyos for a couple weeks and freaking love them.

 

looks awesome, its a great feeling knowing you bought your truck, wheels and everything else on it when im only twenty.. looks great though, one thing. IMO lose the foot rails.

 

'bout time man. they look awesome. good call with not buying my rims, as it looks like it worked out for both parties. what's the expected mileage out of them?

 

Looks fantastic dude. Next order of business, get those bumpers PTM!

and x2 on losing the nerf bars..

 

Someone beat me to it, but anyways your truck looks incredible!! definitely getting a similar setup when i get my next set of rims and tires!

 

looks awsome darren, like the wheels just like mine

 

Nice.. your truck looks tons better.. now you just need to get them bumpers fixed!

I think if you threw some fender flares on it would look even better! I know BallinSTX and a couple other bought some ebay flares that are just a tad bit bigger than the stock FX4 flares and they look really nice. I think they're only like $180 or so..?

So yea.. bumpers, flares, nightshades tail lights, emblem decals, and you'll be good to go!

 

That looks great what a change wheels and tires can do to a truck.

 

i hardly recognized the truck darren, congrats

Time for PTM bumpers and skull caps. and maybe some maroon FX2 running boards if you must keep any running board on the truck

 

Looks awesome!

 

Darren, Great job man. Money well spent. Looks sick.
