the wheels will look sweet on the truck, looking forward to seeing them mounted.

 

Ditto. I love seeing something slightly different. I love Ravines to begin with, but the gold is going to work great with your paint scheme.

30's will be just about right for those wheels on a stock truck. They should look great with your paint scheme.

I've got 31's on mine. Just a little rub on full lock with the control arms.

Whats the paint code for that color?? Also truck is coming along beautifully!

 

Truck was painted when I got it, but it appears to be Dark Baltic Blue Metallic Clearcoat HQ9/CE or a repaint very similar.

 

The gold wheel code is hy2. The dupont formula # is c9266; Sherwin Williams formula # is 38096

Ok, let me know what you think.

 

Since I have the wheels, I'm considering making it a 'Golden Eagle' Comanche with the below as inspiration.

 

Maybe add golden eagle decals on hood. Circle eagle decals on sides. Don't think I'll go with the large bird decal on hood.

 

Eventually converting interior to tan.

 

Sound cool or retarded? All opinions welcomed. Thanks.

New front end (grill, bumper, guards, lights) wheels and tires (30-9.5-15) Center cap wouldn't fit on fronts. Will paint hub to match rear caps.

Flares will get paint and new stainless studs this weekend.e6eny7an.jpguse7y9y7.jpg

Good choice on the Ravine wheels. Me likee.  :thumbsup:  To dress up the two front center hubs, you can pick up a pair of these:

The 1.790" diameter is close to correct for the 2WD MJ dust caps. I had them on my rig when I had the Ravine wheels. They are a little loose w/o a shim; I simply cut out a 1/4" strip of aluminum from a beer can, formed it around the edge of the cap, then tapped them in. Better than painting the old rusty dust caps.
