Talking Finally New Rims & Tires Installed!

Finally bought my rims and tires today, after some last minute market research on these forums. Thanks everyone for your help.
They filled my tires with Nitrogen as it is suppossed to keep the tires cooler, and not leak as bad as Air filed tires, which means the tires will end up lasting longer. Plus my tires are covered by a 5 year warrenty which includes basically everything.
Now i have a few more mods todo, first paint the calipers (Chrome?) and brake roter hubs (Black). Then i have to lower the rear to balance out the truck.

Rim and Tire Info:
New Eagel 060 Chrome 6on135 20 8.5 rims.
Michellin LTX M/S P275/55r20 Tires.
Later Trev

Thanks for the compliments everyone!
Quintin "Finished modding, or finished as in "tragic hunting accident" finished?"

Lorraina Bobbit (sp) ring any bells?

... Just kidding, but she did mention something about marrying my truck or something. I guess i better spend a little more time with her, she is getting jealous of my truck! Maybe Meguires has something i can use on her to make her happier

SoundPer4mance "looks really good, but you do need to level it!!"
Im going to get the rear lowered by 2" i dont want to go any lower than that as i still like to use my truck for work.

CrAz3D "...where did you get the pretty side cladding stuff?"
I bought the stainless steel rocker panels at a local truck store when i bought my truck last year. They have held up great through all temperature conditions and weekly (at least) high pressure washers.

Ah hem.... well if your gonna lower the back you can just take those blocks out and send them my way! lol Seriously though, those rimes look nice! With all youve done to "her" I was wondering if/when you would get some new rims/tires to top it off. I like the way it matches all the rest of the other chrome components, it really clean up the look!
