Welcome from a fellow North Carolinian. I am in Winston Salem, not too far from Charlotte. I really like your truck. Are those Transit wheels with the lips painted white? I was thinking of doing that very same thing on my truck. I am torn right now between the black w/ white lip or all white.

yeah they are 22" transit wheels that i powder coated and then painted a fake whitewall. i used detroit steel/mob steel clips for the moon center caps. the whitewall idea came from a guy in wilkesboro. his instagram is bearded_wineo he may have powdercoated his fake white wall, im not sure.

The wheels look really good, thanks for the info. How do you like those Mobsteel clips? I was going to get the cap clips everyone uses on Instagram, but I saw these Mobsteel ones a little cheaper and wondered how well they hold up. I tried to use some old VW clips I had left over from my Beetle build but they snapped off the first time I put the cap on.
