Ok, so I am ditching the 22's for some 24x10" KMC SS's and I'd like to change some other things on the truck but I'd like some input from you guys. I know it's my truck and my style, but I always like to know what other peoples opinions are. Yall have better imaginations than I do.. Haha. i was thinking about ditching the tank and compressor setup, and doing something cleaner, and less overkill. Maybe sheet metal the bed. I dont have the money to body it until tax return time, but that is comming. Please feel free to give me any ideas or  opinions on the truck as it is. And dont worry about critisizing it, I'm not one of those people who will get pissed cause you don't think my truck is perfect. Pics are in my profile. Thanks in advance.

What all are you wanting to change?? Are you looking at different paint schemes?? I think 24's and bodydrop would help a bunch. Truck looks killer as it is bro.

Paint should stay IMO...Changing the wheels up is always a good way to change a look dramatically, Its going to cost alot more than KMCs...But Id look along the lines of Boyd Crown jewls which they make in 24's..Magnetos would look badass..But of course they only make those up to 20"...At first glance, since the truck does have flames, You get that hot-rod kinda feel..Why not just go with a rod influenced wheel?...The SS's are too..They just remind me too much of the played out American Racing ones everyone throws on...I think the rear setup is pretty killer, If you wanted to simplify you could just run nitrogen, But of course your left with a giant tank..I second the sheetmetal floor too

24s will look good, but I say go w/ billet wheels.  If your going to clean up the inside the bed, run an EDC and put the tanks underneath. Bed setup look nice to me though.  I'd for sure run billets though.

Have the flames stripped in a silver or purple it will make it look like a whole new truck

Thanks for all the feedback guys. I would love to do a billet wheel, but the cost is a killer for me, and I drive the begeezus out of it and would be too woried about one bending on these lovely California roads we have. The B/D is comming in June-ish if moneystays good. I like the paint, so that will stay for now,  and I really think I'm going to sheet metal the bed, just thinking of how to do it. If I started painting the interior pieces black, do yall think it would clash with the interior color. And I'll try and post more pics of that console for ya when I get off work. Thanks again for the imput guys.

Maybe if you were to start with the black on the interior and then continue with the blue flame pattern on the console and some blue accents....
