Remo's Ride

So mines just wedgewood blue?

 

[Remo]

Well, there is a deep wedgewood blue, my guess is that's it if you know its wedgewood blue.
Check the tag on the b pillar on the drivers side, behind the driver's door. One the tag, it says Exterior Paint or something similar near the bottom. Medium Wedgewood blue has code LB, Deep Wedgewood Blue is code LL. Then again, it might not even be that. Look up the code online and/or compare with some pictures of other Ford vehicles. Good luck.

Nice ride man. How do those 22s ride? Obviously its stiffer than stock but how much stiffer?

 

[Remo]

Honestly, I love my 22's. The wider tires (305) and the lower profiles (40) help the truck so much in terms of handling. Handling is unbelievably better. It tracks better on the highway and obviously taking turns is much better. The ride is stiffer and more responsive, but with 40 series tires, there is plenty of sidewall and it absorbs the road conditions comparably to a car. A 45 series would be even better for comfort, though. It's easier to find all season tires in 45 series, too. Only downsides would be the cost, changing tires with the seasons (if you don't get all season tires), speedo/odo inaccuracy, and slightly reduced braking. All in all, though, I love them and they are the best investment I made in my ride.

An excuse to buy a tuner, or if you don't wana spend lots there are units solely for correcting the speedo.

 

[Remo]

Yeah, there's a possibility I will doing some computer tuning sometime. So far, I found a Diablo Sport Predator for $300 shipped. I haven't seen anything cheaper than that, but I haven't really been shopping around too much. I am pretty broke...

Here are some updated pics...stock 16" rims with LT285/75 AT's for the winter:







I know its dirty, don't flame me. It was too damn cold to polish up all my chrome by hand like I usually do. It was below freezing that day and damn windy.

Those looks smaller than 16, although I highly doubt they even made 15s but those look pretty small. Ford had so many different rims for the expy/f150 series but they were all in the 16 inch category I'm pretty sure which is gay.

 

[Remo]

They're 16" x 7" stock Ford alloy rims. They look smaller because the tires are so much bigger than stock. The taller sidewalls makes the wheels look smaller.
