| i said that the 1st set of wheels were gonna be chrome and that the 2nd was gonna be black. well its time to pick out some black ones and i cant wait! the thing is, unlike some of my friends w/ 4x4's that only keep theirs for the street, ive dragged my wheels through mud, sand, and ocean water! i kinda wondered how long it was gonna be til my wheels started to go. now theyre starting to be a real pain to keep up. i got some in mind. my girl dont really think much of them but then again, shes cleaning them... lol.
anyways, gonna take some getting-used-to seeing my truck w/o the bling but i am already used to the fact that the up keep will be very little.

| Yeah, but chrome is a hell of a lot easier to keep clean than polished aluminum. That's why I went with the Cragars. I wanted the old school look, plus a little windex and a paper towel, they're ready to go. Beats hours with Mother's polish. I have the Aluminum hoop steps, and I polish the sh*t out of them, and three days later, look like crap. I have a neighbor down the street with a truck similar to yours with black wheels, and it looks great!!
Good luck, and post photos when you get 'em. BT. |

| Yeah you're right about the Hawaii thing. I'd be better off to order them Pony Express, and expect them to be here sooner!! But I'm thinkin' they're gonna be worth the wait.
Good luck Bra!! |
