Title: My Progressives!
Post by: Unofficial on April 09, 2008, 05:32:25 pm

I posted a thread about cleaning these wheels a while ago, and I used some acid that my dad got me, and they cleaned up real nice. Later, I got these tires mounted on the wheels and we put them on that night!

It's true, especially with these trucks since they came with the ugliest most ridiculous wheels out there. Ford definitley one up'd us on these trucks in that department.

Looks great btw

Thanks Fordeatinz, and Vile, I totally agree. I hate those big ugly hubcaps.  >:( But yeah, thanks.

I was apprehensive on whether or not they would look good on this truck, but then I saw another truck on here with those same wheels and I went to tires plus to get new tires mounted on them not long after seeing that picture. :D
