MLNIUM has a new pair of shoes

Well MLNIUM is up for storage for the next 5 months or so and will be going through a make over. I thought I would share it with you all as different things get done. The 22's are gone and I went back to 20's, They are the Budnik Fat lip series 20x8.5 in front and 20x10 in the rear. I will keep you informed as it takes a new look over the winter. Going lower and more suspention goodies are next.
Bill

Looks MUCH better imo, just needs a tad more sidewall on the rubber.

I feel the same way, when I put them on today to see how they looked, I was shocked at how small they looked. I am lowering the truck about an Inch and a half more so that should help fill the wheel wells.
I don't have the 22's anymore they left on Thursday morning. Someone else will be running them on their Expedition, and it is one sweet Expi too...

I get bored easy and wanted a new look, I have a few things that I have planed and you never know, 5 months is a long time and I might get bored with looking at these 20's and have something different on it by spring. Like I have always said some people will like the choices that I make and some won't. I do like the look of the 22's better but when I lower the truck some more the wheel wells will be filled up again and it will look good. And after all I am going after a new look for spring so I couldn't run the same wheels now could I...

I have to agree, the truck looks much better with the 20's. With the 22's, it looked almost like a Tonka truck LOL
