New Wheels and Tires

Just put on Black 20 x 10 Demoda Intimidators with Nitto Terra Grapplers, Bilsteins, and leveling kit. Goes in the body shop next week for front and rear Xenon bumper covers, wheel flares, body matched door handles and mirrors, and black billet grill. Lugs were too long for the caps to go on, so that still needs correcting, but I like the stealth look of the black, and once I get the HD headlights and tail lamps, as well as get rid of the badging, the truck will be very low key........

Not sure how to post pix, but they are in the gallery.

America's Tire/Discount Tire - Right at $2700 OTD with the Road Hazard Wty. They aren't balanced worth a ##@& right now, so when I go back for the caps, they are going to need to take another run at it. One of the reasons I went with the Nitto's is because everyone raved about how easy they were to balance up.....we shall see.

I have had the truck for nearly 2 years and needed some new tires, found out the truck isn't worth anything used, so I decided to 'revitalize' the truck and just keep on driving it. I have really been struggling on whether to two tone the bottom of the truck (flares, bumper covers, lower rockers), or just shoot it all Arizona Beige. I like the idea of some mild contrast and have narrowed it down to several colors, but you never know till you pick one (Infiniti Beryllium, Lexus Briarwood Pearl, and Audi Alpaka Beige). I dented the tailgate right at the F150 logo, so while it is in the shop we will de-badge the tailgate logo.

Also have some new N-Fab nerfs coming that will look really nice. My wife can't understand why I couldn't just buy a new set of Goodyear Wranglers for the stock rims!

Well since I was upgrading to 35s anyways, they pro-rated my tires and gave me $600 back of the $800 I had paid. Otherwise they would of gave me brand new tires, free.
