Concept for my truck...

Just wanted to throw this photoshop of my truck up and see what everyone thinks about my plans. Still plan to get a lift at a later date, but these are the first few things I would like to do. Give me your opinions. Still not quite sure about black wheels on an Oxford White truck.

I say go for it. If you tint the windows and the tails a little darker you'd be set.

Those tires are shiny!

Realized it would probably help of I gave you a picture of how it looks now and a description of what I want to do. I would like everything on the truck to be Oxford White or Black.

Planned Mods:
Darker Tint
Blacked out headlights
Smoked Taillights/Headlights
Paint Honeycomb grill Black or replace with a black honeycomb grill
PTM grill surround Oxford White
Paint rear inner fender well black
Paint Badges black
Paint rockers and bumpers black (possible with line-x type coating)
2" Leveling Kit
18x9 XD800 Misfits (black)
325/60R18 Nitto Terra Grappler

Will think about going with a 4" Rancho Lift later on, but it is just not in the budget at the moment. Below is the picture of my truck currently.

You need to address the flares by painting them as well since you're planning to do the bumpers and rockers. If not it will look dumb (see your PS).

Also, that is how they did the lower body coloring on the two-tone F150's and I thought this would make it stand out a bit more. Still not sure...

I like that a lot. I'd say keep the flares unpainted...

Black wheels on your white truck would look fine. The one thing I see in your concept picture that I think would take away from the look of the truck was the black lower body paint
Hopefully you aren't serious about that part. But Hey, it's your truck

I think they look like band-aids unpainted.

I agree. All white with black wheels looks great. Many here have done that look, stock, lifted, and lowered.

Just for you Stealth...since you feel so strongly about the flares, here is another PS to look at.
