That is looking black! 8) Are they clearing good?
Any thoughts about blacking the chrome strip on the grille?
That might look really good. A little sanding, paint and clear coat would not cost much.
Then if they are legal in your state maybe some smoked lense covers.
That truck would be "murdered" nicely 8)

Looks great. I wanted rims that were very similar to that. Decided to powder coat the ZR5 alloys black instead.

Yes i would love to black that strip out i didnt know you could sand that chrome stuff. And as far as rubbing. Just a tad at full turn im thinking of cranking on the torsion bars up about an inch or less. The worst part was getting all 4 on and then finding out the front calipers were rubbing on the rim but a little bit of grinding an all better now thats why they say 2 or 4 wheel drive when you order the rims :lol: but all is good and cant wait to black the rest out. If i were to take the rails of the bed is there gonna be alot of huge holes i hate those things and that dumb roof rack too any info would br great thanks for the complements!!!!!! :D

I know the holes for the rails aren't to big as alot of guys have taken them off. If you do take off the bed rails, I will buy them from you (if you want to sell). I think you will probably have to leave the roof rack on unless you are going to pay someone to fill the holes in your roof. :D
