Alright, I think it's time so I'm launching a build thread. I wanted to call it Project Yard Ape... 'till I found out it was a racial slur...(thanks urban dictionary 
) So I'm settling. Anyways, this is what I purchased in February '10.
First thing was first, I needed new tires and rims for summer (it came with studs), so I purchased these for $100
They had alot of spots where the clearcoat was flaking off
Took the clearcoat off with a brass wire brush on a drill
Then proceeded to sand the aluminum and paint the inserts
End Result
Painted the little hubcaps too
And on the truck with 235/75s
