those look like the cast line of torque thrusts, best i can remember there not to bad high $ wise. and they have a killer old school look with those grey centers,special on that color blue.

Thanks td, the wheels were given to me with one condition, that I would get a photo shoot of my truck on a major magazine.
As for the paint and body I don't know what color to go with yet but the body will have a few custom touches done to it??
speaking of custom touches any up dates on the chop? Windshield still holding you ransom?

hey tybob--i am surprised someone hasn't brought to your attention your nomenclature booboo--Fords do not know what a "fleetside" is, nor do they recognize "stepsides"

they would be styleside and flareside respectively :wink:
