Looks very nice.

I do think you need some bigger white letter tires, at least 285/70R17. Or 315s/35s with a leveling kit. Also, whats the reason for third gen wheels opposed to aftermarket?

I like your 3rd Gen badges, look nice. I would like to do that to mine.

Not to hijack your thread or anything, but I just got mine put on too. I like them, pretty much even with my flares and make the truck look a lot better. Handles a lot nicer with an extra 4" of track.

Pretty much the sames as the 2nd gen, rim is a 17" instead of a 16" but the overall hight is the same.

The offset is different. They fit up under the truck more, or don't stick out as far, whichever way you want to look at it. I just put a set on mine from an '05. They look great, but I found out about the offset difference when I couldn't keep the front ones balanced. Turns out the right side wheel is just close enough in a hard right hand turn to pull the weights off the inside of the wheels on the lower shock mount bolt. Other than that I love them.
