    Ghetto! That's the same as seeing a F350 dually that has been dropped. Why pay $60K+ for a truck and it's features just to negate them all!

    Looking at them stupid things gives me a headache.
    What a dumb idea in the first place .... "Hey, yo I want my vehicle to look like it's still moving even when it's at the stop light."
    Give me a break!

    Those are different wheels. The ones up front are stock F150 wheels and the rear are Moto Metals.

    That truck would look bad ass if he switched to steelies and put on some 35"s

    The only way this shit looks better is to swap out that Ford body with a Taco body. Have him talk to TacoZilla. I think he did some wierd stuff with a Toyota and a Chevy frame or something...

    Geez....Give the guy a break....:rolleyes:

    He might actually have wheels & tires on order and needed to drive his truck around while he's waiting for stuff to arrive. Let's hope he's got bigger tires on order...

    I had a 4.5" lift on my first jeep with the factory 27" tires on it and I drove it around town like that. Funny as hell...and people were pointing and laughing. They had no idea that I was swapping axles the next day. :p:p
