Cool. when mines ready for paint I'm seriously considering moving from white to a brown called "brownstone metallic". Found on the 2014 and up silverados. It's a very pretty color.

depends on how much wider and stickier of a tire you plan to run.

but a little less right foot would be the easiest solution ;)
