Default new shoes on the whip

Finally got some pics of the new 22's. They are Venti v73, 22x10, on 305/40/22 Nitto 420s. This combo rides great, handles better that stock, and gives the truck a stance that I'm much happier with. Overall I'm very happy with my choice after all the mess I went through trying to get them. I was hoping the lip would be just a little larger, but what are you going to do? Excuse the filth of the truck, i was too lazy to clean it up after this mornings sprinkle/mist on my way to class this morning. I had to get some pics up before some people sent henchmen to my front door
Immediate plans are a 2" shackle, exhaust, tint and some color matching. Hope to have that all done before summer then I'll probably move to some interior and performance mods through the summer and into next fall. Questions, comments, let me now. On with the pics...

Your truck looks great, although i hope you do not plan on droppin the front. You will have rubbing for sure. A shackle to level it out will make it look good.

If I remember correctly, a shackle drop is all he is going to do. Will look good IMO

Damn, I just noticed that now that I looked at the pics more closely. That's a nice shade of blue.
