Got a little free time after work the other day, so found a little hill to test the suspension out on, and decided to take some pics.

I call this my after tax season picture....I went out early this morning with the dog and went to a park....nice crisp morning....no deadlines to worry about (not individual anyways....still have non-profits due in May and corp extensions in Sept and individual extensions in October)...but anyways, it was nice this morning...life is good!

I like this picture because all my other ones are of it posing at a car show or something...this is just me driving it!

I don't remember, but what I do remember is the crap I went through to find some that were the right bolt pattern and OFFSET!. But, I absolutely love them....there is a lot of real estate on the chrome and it shines like crazy when the sun hits it. They were big bucks also. I do know they sell these type a lot cheaper in polished silver also.

Right between the bumper and the tailgate. There's a little access hole for the windage mechanism.

Oh wait, that's for the spare tire crane. Nvm. smilietease

No. :( I couldn't think of any other better hills, so this is absolutely horrible flex.

And Ken, that is a beautiful picture of your truck!

Thanks man! It means alot. :)

they are sure beautiful wheels there. and ya I know the newer ford bolt pattern is different, making it a little harder to find wheels

Yeah, I'm not sure why they changed the bolt pattern, but made it difficult when buying aftermarket wheels, especially high end ones that are chrome. I search high and wide for these babies and even put spacers on to fill out the fender flares better.
