I thought do. Well I've been noticing a small miss in the truck that's getting worst but comes and goes. I'm hoping to change fuel filters then injectors since mine are originals with 44x,XXX miles. I'm hoping its not the IP.

Guess I just got bad fuel since it stopped doing it after a couple fresh tanks. Also truck without cap or me weighs 4200 in current form. With me we are at 4500.

Those will let me run a 15x10 on the rear and 15x8 on the front. I've thought about painting the truck black so would make it all tie in. I don't know if I want to put the numerous hours into body work.

No flat black. If I do those wheels they will be color matched to the trucks final color.
