I might it all depends. i know when you order rims usually the only tire they offer is 265/35/r22 that size will need lowering but i could get bigger tires but they usually run about 200 dollars extra usually bigger tires will fill the wheel well good

Hmm personally I would ask you to remove the hid's since they are not in proper housing, from a stand point of a small car owner they blind me on the road, Hell even the bmw's with them from the factory blind me. But they do look cool.

paint the bumpers and remove the badges for a "cheap" upgrade that will make it look darker. After that the rims would be nice. I wouldnt lower it. I like that ride height. The RIDE looks nice man keep it up!

thats not really blacked out, if you watch rob and big that truck is blacked out. Everything is black including the lights and you should of went with 5% tint. The grill should be all blacked out too. Than you are all blacked out, flat black is the way to go when doing this. The bumpers need to be done definitely but that will look pretty good. Also do the front windshiled with 20% tint that will darken it up even more and people won't see you at all.
