What do yall think about these rims?

I had someone in the L forum put the L rims on my truck. How do yall think they look? I like the 99-00L rims best on my truck (the first ones). They sell replicas of those rims to fit on the 91-96 f-150s, so I'd be in good shape their.

Those rims would look better on a 97 and up reg cab short box they just don't look all that great on that truck IMHO.

personally, i think the 99-00 rims dont look too bad (they give the truck a "sporty" look but i do agree they look better on 97+ trucks). the 01-02's dont really look right on your truck. just an opinion

thats true, i think if you at least get drop shackles for the back and level it out, it would look better.

hmm, maybe if you do shackles and add some adjustable helper springs like the ones MacGyver had on his. just an idea, im not really sure if it would work...

I was thinking the same thing, because I dont know when the pic of the rims was taken, but I know it wasnt under the conditions the pic of my truck was. I think the 99-00L rims will look sweet. I think this will be like my las tmod to my truck. This will come after I get the truck into the low 16s. I'm not asking that much. Low 16s high 15s. THATS ALL I WANT
