New member from La Porte/Houston Tx

So been browsing here awhile and getting ideas for my new 2010 f150 so figured id sign up and and show the new truck off a little. Bought it new had chrome grill and bumpers but just got it out of paint where I had new painted front bumper, grill, wheels, taillights and headlights. Going to black out the rest of the chrome (rear bumper, emblems, and wheel center caps) with a rhino liner application hopefully this weekend if i can get it sand blasted in time. Now where I need help is what leveling kit to use for the front and what all terrain tires to use that look descent and can be bought from discount or ntb or another local Houston shop.

Nice truck! Have you ever been in Dallas? You should tint your third brake light too.

Yeah im slowly getting to blacking everything out. Had the wheel centers and bumper rhino lined this weekend. Ill post more pics soon. Next weekend I plan on doing a level/lift on it and try to get some new rubber 285/70/17. Then it will be going to the tint shop for dark tint and the third nrake light.

welcome, I've passed through la porte a couple of times. I used to go to sylvan beach skatepark back when i rode Bmx. Nice truck btw

And for tires from discount/NTB you can go with a BFG A/T or a Nitto Terra grappler
