alright here is some positive feedback.

get rid of the old man step bars,

and get rid of the chrome bumper

and get the black monsters.

happy

i really like the look of this truck, it is a white sand also, so i know i can pull off black wheels....question about the black monsters, are they matte black or are they glossy? i saw a set rolling down the highway on a black king ranch near milwaukee and couldn't tell if they were matte black or just dusty....i think glossy is a must (at least on my truck)...

I personally like my step bars because my girlfriend doesnt complain about trying to get in and out in a skirt! Maybe powercoat them white? Or get a black rim with a little bit more chrome on it to match? Just some ideas...

I say get the monsters on 50 series tires unless you plan on lifting it. a 305/55/22 is a big tire!
I was just thinking about the fact that he is in WI and has very similar winters that we have here in NH. The frost under the roads leads to frost heaves and some major rim bending potholes so I'm not sure I'd go with 22's. just something to consider in the frost belt regions.

09STX, I like those Mamba M1's! I really don't think 22's would be much of a problem here in WI, i usually am on the highways anyway and usually see potholes coming! IMO WI does a pretty good job with road upkeep....planning on the aftermarket wheels just to be a summer set, getting some 275/60/R20 Cooper Zeon LTZ's for my stock wheel/winter set!

I dont think I missed it anywhere, but what kind of tires do you plan on running with them? If you go with a street tire I say go with the 22's, if you plan on going with an AT or MT I would go with 20's and a little more sidewall. I think aggressive tires with smaller sidewalls look a little off. So I say it depends on what style tire you are wrapping them with.
