Personally, I like it.

I owned a 79 f150 4x4 w/33" tires and a 3 " lift in it for almost 15 years. I put a 1984 ford stepside bed on it, and it was a real head turner. Miss that old truck, but it was horrible on fuel.

Truck looks great.

I personally like the look of the pre-Super Duty Alcoa wheels on our trucks and even the older Chevy trucks. I say try 'em out!

That is quite unusual, I give it extra point for originality. Looks great.
