he doesn't have those lights, and that isn't a real picture anyways. it's a photoshop of what he was thinking of putting on there.

they don't. people just are stupid sometime. there is a CL ad in DFW for a 04-08 chin spoiler the guy has listed as an 03 model...stupid.

If you got 5x135mm to 6x135mm, they would look sweet on your truck!

That was from the original post, just of what I was thinking about getting.

Is it possible to switch to a 6x135mm?

Using wheel adapters i think. They make the tires sit out wider though.
Heres one place you could get em, kinda expensive though http://adaptitusa.com/5x135to6x135wheeladapter.aspx

they do make them but many places dont recommend them. not 5 lug to 5 lug or 6 lug to 6 lug places stand behind all the time. i was looking at some 5 on 135 to 5 on 5.5 and there is a set of custom billet ones that are 1.5" thick for 200 plus shipping for all 4. but since your going with 18" plus wheels you should have many options for wheels.

im trying to figure out if i can do a 6 lug swap up front. i know i can do the back and its pretty simple

Here is the thread about it. It's pretty short. :o

So there is your answer...unless you want to completely rebuild your IFS....

I want to, but, 22" KMC Slides are almost as much as a pair of 20" Lightning's with wheels. Can't decide what I want.
