New shoes :)

Well I finally got a new set of wheels and tires for my FX2. They aren't the 24's I was working on, but life hits and you have to compromise for a little... (I WILL have 24's I just have to wait a little). So I ended up getting these. I like them SO much more than the 20's I had on it. Totally changes the look. What do you think?

Before...

After...

I like, now just lower the back a little and level it out. And what is that on the right side of the tailgate?

And like 05RedFX4 said, lower that rear end and it will look killer.

Thanks guys! The thing on the tailgate is gone now. It was the dealership name but they can kiss my a**! I already took out the 1" block in the back. I really can't lower it anymore, unless I do an airbag assist, as I sometimes have a ton of weight back there for work, and when it's loaded, it REALLY puts the bed close to the wheel wells as it is. So any suggestions?!

The previous 20's looked terrible in my opinion. These look 1000x better. GOOD CHOICE.

nice! Thats a definate on this set looking way better than the first....I think you should just drop the rear and do an airbag assist. or keep it loaded down...

I agree with the rear being lowered as well as I think you should lose the step bars.

Truck looks good though!
