American Racing RT-S

Being such an open wheel, I had to strip and paint the calipers and rotor centers the next day so there wasn't so much rust showing.

And a photoshop of what I want it to look like eventually...

And the weather is still threatening rain, so I can't use my new detail kit yet!

Those are purdy. When does the lowering kit go on?

And I dig that paint. I can't think of anything I'd do differently.

Most likely around September. It may be later because I want to put in a rear sway bar and upgrade the front at the same time.

Then again, I also want F-250LD brakes, that paint job, and a supercharger, so things change as opportunities pop up.

Nice wheels. Make sure sway bar will work when you lower your truck.
Things going to be sweet when it's done.

Nope, the Light Duty f-250 is 5 lug. Now the F-150 7700 is 7 lug.
