the 14 and 15" deer hoof rims would accent the hot-rod look even more! im visualizing wider/meaty 15's in the back and low pro 14's in the front :D
Yea I think I'll go with those :) and they would be even lighter than the crager's I have on now since their alumimnum, just gotta find the right tire size combo for em

Lucky that your dad likes your Ranger. He still says it is a waste of money fixing it. And does your girl know how to drive a stick?

I haven't really invested any money into it, except 60 for inspection and 80 for tag/title work. lol I am doing the H4 headlight conversion and clear front turn signals, also gonna tint the rear tails with niteshade paint i have left over from the Probe, but thats still all under 100 bucks for that. And my girl kinda knows how to drive stick, but absolutely refuses to drive anything stick lol

lol I just bought it back last weekend. I just got it street legal the end of last week, so I'm still working out all the bugs before I take it to the strip, me and some friends are planning on running our Rangers down to Cecil County drags. Last time this truck was on the road legally was 99'. So it's been a project for quite some time now. I did take a few friends for rides in er the other night and showed em how it'll light em up and get sideways pretty easy...:) And as soon as people hear the exhaust, it looses the sleeper factor....hehe oh well, I'm keeping the body all stock looking, just clean, with nice rims
put a nice fat muffler on it...and do a cutout.:headbang:
