I like black rims on certain rigs. Not all, but some. Imho, and its just my opinion, black rims would dumb down that beautiful paint color.

In the end its your truck, your money, do as you wish with it!! I'll still be in awe every time it blows my doors off.

Despite being sicker than hell, I spent a little time working today...

And for those if you who've never had the pleasure of lifting a regular cab... It's a real treat.

Hope it is up high enough so you can't bump into it. Looks hairy sitting like that.

Cab and bed are headed off for body work and paint. JD is gonna do some motor work and finish up the chassis work that needs to be done in the mean time. Almost time to shred some tires :D

i always put both arms under the pinch welds on each side and use a rachet strap to hold the back of the cab down secure onto the lift

Some lift setups won't allow the arms to get there. I know on my lift with a regular cab I can not get all 4 arms under the pinch welds. I've had to lift cabs in a similar fashion - Although I usually use 4x4s. LOL

Yeah my lift is the same way the pads don't touch the cab the lift arms do and the pads want to hit the cab mounts coming up

Great looking truck! You guys have done a lot of impressive work so far, and I love the butterscotch color you're going with. I would definitely go with chrome rims. I look forward to seeing the finished product!

I think a gloss black wheel would be a compromise between black and chrome.
