I posted some pics of my truck a couple months ago with the stock 20's but needed tires soon so i just decided to get 24's instead. I paint and repair bents wheels for a living so I don't ever have to worry about getting them bent.



when I first got it.

I like the rear bumpers for these that have the exhaust tips "built" in. And I say lower it.

24 inch wheels and what 10 inch rotors? seems efficient

Looks good. I see you up at Gwinnett Place Nissan sometimes fixing customer wheels. PM me your contact info. I know someone looking to get some wheels fixed!

The wheels would look a lot better if you got rid of some of that wheel gap.

Echo this and I feel like there needs to be more tire. Just looks kinda skimpy all around.

Huge ass wheels with wimpy brakes, lol. Good luck. I hope you pay attention while driving.

thanks for the input everyone. I haven't seen another ss truck on here so far but still looking. the rotors aren't actually as bad as you might think though bc they are dual piston brakes all the way around so they stop well though I aree they do look small. the drop will never happen though bc I actually use my truck not just drive it. I pull a 3k pound trailer every day and a boat or my quads every weekend . Dropping a truck is just not for me, but thanks again.
here is my trailer and quads...

Nice truck and 450's man. The black on black is a little played out but it looks good on your truck.

I have 24's with factory brakes too and never have any braking issues...

I love the truck itself. Everything else can go. Tires are too small, wheels are too big and an eyesore on a high level. Later, QD.

looks clean and Diff. i'm actually thinking repainting my rims with red spokes and a black lip. I do realize alot of people blacking out there cars now but 2 years ago (when I did mine) it was pretty rare. I just don't think people understand that just bc its not slammed with massive camber that it looks bad. its just a different style. come down to memorial drive in a slammed civ, sti, s2k, and people will look at you like your a complete idiot. Dont rag on me now bc ive owned 2 civs and accord.

Calm down, man. You posted up pics, not anyone else. You can't expect everyone to like your ride. I have no slammed car or fucked up "stanced" car and I like your truck. I just don't think it looks good all black (which was NOT rare to see 2 years ago). Especially those wheels. That's what really makes the truck not look so good. But instead of assuming who is voicing his/her opinion on your truck, know who that person is. Not everyone on here thinks that s;ammed is the only way to go.

Just take people's opinions with a grain of salt, man. It's your ride, not ours. Later, QD.

not pissed, I actually agree with most everyone here if all i did was drive my truck. its just in a different realm of "tuning". 2 years ago you would have a hard time seeing a full size truck all black just bc it was more of the cliche thing to slap come chrome ones on, kind of like slamming and throwing some rims on a civ, but don't get pissed when i say that bc there are alot of very nice civs out there. which I must say I do like your civ alot QD, different but not tacky.

yea, not my style either but the people who do like that are the ones that come up to me the most in my line of work, hence the rims. I actually got them for $600 bucks with tires, though they were bent and not all black when i got them, but that was an easy fix for me though.

Looks good. Definitely should drop it. I haul 2000lbs on trailer and about 500lbs in bed fairly regularly (2 to 3 times a month) with 5"/3" drop S10. You could definitely haul with a drop on a full-size truck.
