Chrome lightning wheels always look good

 

[MrLight460]

Any other ideas? Kind of on a budget after that purchase... Remove running boards? Any other chrome? Mirrors?

If your looking for more chrome and on a tight budget check out ebay. They have the chrome mirror covers, door handles, and door pillars, they are stick on's but will give you more chrome for cheap. You can also pickup billit grilles on ebay for pretty cheap ( I found a replacement billit not the overlay billit for $60 free shipping ) Just some ideas.

Thanks for the ideas! I'm typically not too much into stick ons, but I did say on a budget. I will be looking at replacement billet grills though! Thanks again! Any other ideas are welcome...

I agree I don't care for the stick on stuff but some people like it. For me I am trying to stay away from to much chrome the only chrome I like is the bumbers and hopefully soon I will be able to get my 22" shoes ( hopefully before baby number 2 gets here in march )

Here are the ones I am looking at in a 22" x 9" with a 305/40R22 , what do ya think?

I really like those wheels man... I've had an assortment of aftermarket wheels and none seem to ride as good as OEM... which is why I opted for the chrome lightning wheels (they slide over the center of the hub like the originals). I have just over $3200 in that setup. I'm not sure how much more chrome I want either, just getting ideas...

any reason ur not getting 24's...

I do alot of towing ( car trailer ) and don't want to take a risk with such a small sidewall. I like the look but for towing I think the 22" will do better.

Have you done any towing with the 24"? If so how does it do ( ride / handling ) ?

I would also like to run a TPMS system when I do get the new rims, but my '02 didn't come with it, have you seen any after market setups that are any good?

 

[GAINMOB]

i've searched on tirerack.com for tpms...i wont put any in mine until i need to replace the tires...they were shipped mounted/balanced...so i'll keep hitting the reset butting util then

next i'd go with grille and headlights they will give a clean front end look to your ride, the stick on chrome is cool when used in moderation so your not "over-blinging" your truck since its white its easy to do, like just the handles not the entire surrounding piece and maybe the window sill trim just those will make a noticeable difference without going overboard because we all seen those before

racenut id go with 22's! 24's are pimp but will sacrifice performance especially uphill and eat up your gas mileage, 22's are a safe bet with the extra load on the rear tires and handling will be increased with the wider wheels compared to a stock setup. those 22's are badass and excellent tire choice 305/40, if you went with 295/40 youll be looking at an extra $50 a tire

as far as tpms im with bhsoulja, i dont have them in my rims and i wont put them in untill i get new tires put on ill just have to deal with the message on my display, there are several aftermarket tpms setups but the only pita is finding a spot to put the display unit without it looking out of place. if you dont have back up sensors or camera there are setups that have the display unit for how close you are to anything behind you/video and the readout of your current tire pressures just some food for thought...... just look on ebay and youll see alot of the options available and the hardest part would be to install the sensors in the tire
