Going OCD on the wiring always give the best results.

I'm debating extending a couple power wires in the engine bay in order to tuck them better.... I don't want anything running on or near the fuse box, but lengths have been a problem

On the way to the tire shop....
And, Big Blue got new shoes! 17x8.5" with 265x70x17 Cooper Discoverer RTX tires. I went for stock size tires since I have a brand new stock suspension and have no intentions of lifting. I think the beefier tire really fills the wheel well, and the extra inch of wheel width really stands out as well.
Just a couple quick driveway shots since it's like 100% humidity and I'm sweating my ass off lol
Overall I'm really happy with the look
These wheels really changed the whole look of the truck

Looking really good man. Great wheel choice. Glad you finally decided to go with the new tires too instead of the regular road tires. They finish it off nicely.

Nice call on the Coopers. I had an attack of grownup-ing and decided not to drop the coin on BFGs this time around. After a metric ass-tonne of research, I ended up with the AT-3s. Seems like these RTXs are very similar. I've put ~13,000 miles on them so far and they're wonderful! Quiet but perform well in all conditions... Highway AND mall curbs all get eaten up with no hiccups.
Looks good!

I was researching and almost got the AT-3's until I saw the buy 2 get 2 deal they had going on with the RTX's, and they seemed a bit more aggressive and had a bit better reviews so I jumped on them. Time will tell how these go

Decided it was time to throw on the satin black emblems to help compliment the wheels, couple before and afters. Front before
Front after
Rear Before
Rear Emblem
Half way there
And all done
Really like the satin black look of these emblems, I'm not a big chrome fan. I also did the side emblems but didn't snap a pic.
Now I need to do a real photoshoot lol

You need to do bronze or black roof rails before the shoot.

I'd still like to see photoshops if possible...
The emblems are now black, and the mirror turn signals will be blacked out if that helps
