Rims on finally

  

gocartone -> Rims on finally (4/21/2008 9:50:13 PM)

Well I finally stoped being lazy and put my rims on that I painted however long ago haha.  Didn't get new tires because of a speeding ticket but oh well.  Should get some better pictures up soon as it was downpouring when I took these and they're pretty blurry.

Well I took some more pictures now that its nice and sunny out.  She hasn't been washed for a while so this weekend she's getting washed/waxed and everything if its nice enough out.  Might go and get some good night shots tonight if I'm not to lazy.

Headlights fine hoods up a hair on that side.  And thanks.  Hopefully this weekend I'll wax it and tireshine it and everything to make it look pretty [:D] haha.

Idriveachevy -> RE: Rims on finally (4/22/2008 5:41:51 PM)

Looks great, how much did you pay for the stock wheels?

The gap on the bottom of the headlight in comparison to the grille was actually my indicator, notsomuch the hood.  For giggles would you pull your grille and see if your headlight tabs are resting in the mounting holes?  I asked my parents if anyone had ever done work on their truck that would require taking the headlights out (they bought it new) and they said no.  I just fixed the headlights on my last trip home...somebody was messing with them.

Do your headlights light up more sky than road?

gocartone -> RE: Rims on finally (4/22/2008 8:35:47 PM)

I know my headlights are right because I had them in wrong the first time lol.  When the tabs are in wrong theres a huge gap between the grill and the bottom of the headlight I thought?  And I think it was like 70 or 75 I payed for the stock wheels, 15ish for paint, sanded them down some taped the edge put a few coats of black on then took the tape off and put on a few coats of clear.  Considering summits black with polished lip rims are around $60 a piece and I have better wheels with stock backspacing for $90ish total I'm pretty happy haha.

No, the inside edge is angled up so there's a bigger gap closer to the grille than near the fender.

gocartone -> RE: Rims on finally (4/22/2008 8:51:30 PM)

Oh ok well I had them in wrong at first when I put the new bulbs in so I know there in there right now.

EuroGoldLS -> RE: Rims on finally (4/23/2008 4:29:37 AM)

They might have just a little bit of a gap, but that doesn't mean that the tabs are out. It could just be adjusted like that to bring the highbeams up a little bit.
