Thumbs up Awesome looking Lightning!

Saw this Lightning at the track last Sunday.

Yes, those are the HD wheels.

I think it looks sweet although some nice polished aluminum rims would look much better then those HD rims.

My tips are in about the same position which I feel safer with. Don't want to risk discoloring or burning the ground efects. Mine came from the factory like that. YES they would look a little better if tucked up closer, but, there are reasons they are not.
Seems I read a post a while back on this forum or another about melting ground effects.

I like the blue chebbie in the background.

Seriously, I like the paint scheme but the sparks need redesigning as they conflict with the smooth lines of the truck. JMHO

Wheels, naaa to narrow

I would never do that to my truck, but I think it looks cool. I don't care for the HD wheels.

Thumbs up

ThunderStruck:

I personally like it, I was also very close to putting the HD wheels on my truck. I decided to go with the chrome twenty inch Lightning replica wheels instead. But I do like it.

I also think the paint job looks very good but on someone elses truck.

hdmlnium: Can you really tell the difference between the 20" replica wheels? How much did they cost?
