Be sure to post some pics when you get 'em on. I checked out your Yahoo album and your truck is looking good. Have you decided on a color yet?

Ill take some pics as soon as they get here and I put them on. Thanks for the complament. I got a good deal on the rims $75 new in the box and never mounted its the shipping thats killing me $300 but I cant get new style rims here for under $400 so still not that bad of a deal and I do want to go old school, the rims I wonted here would be $1200 tires and rims mounted. Not sure on the color yet?

The color I think would look great on a stepside with those rims is........how do I describe it.........It's a tan-ish, brown-ish kind of color that has a gold pearl effect when sun hits it. If you pay attention to Jeeps, It was a stock color on a late 90s model Jeep Grand Cherokee. You should check it out and see what you think of it.

WTF?? Is that a Dodge D-50? I've never seen one of those with a stepside.

well here you go, the company that made them all. The big pic is a ford , top right is a toyota and bottom right is a datson and as you can see they almost always used the rims I am getting.

And for you older guys this might bring back some memories?
