Hey, you finally got it done! What kind of lugnuts did you end up using?

Sweet lookin' truck you have there. I see you got one of the ones with the optional permanent paint...

I used the alcoa lug nuts. The rear had enough threads on the studs for me to be happy about 2-3 more threads would be perfect. The fronts are short but are ok. Thats going to be a near future project finding longer studs for the front. I have retorqued them once already.

Yeah the roof has been bad since I got it. The hood went from a little spot to worried about a sheet of paint flying off and covering the window in about 2 weeks it seems.
