    Nice.
    Wheels and tires make a huge difference visually on these trucks. White walls on the outside though? eh. That's just me though.

    Looks like you'll be keeping it after the lease is up ;)

    OP, Your still on stock suspension correct? With the minor trimming you did. Do you have any rubbing at all such as full turn, speed bumps, incline, decline? Your Reg cab looks great. Nice build

    yeah stock for know:eek: and thanks.
    For awhile after i had some slight rubbing if i nailed a driveway or turned on a speed bump. I think it was just the inner fender well plastic that i didn't trim enough, but it seems to have worn itself away now and my tires look fine.
