20" (It was mentioned earlier in the thread)

 

I really wish they offered a gray color that looks somewhat like this one does as it sits in the low setting sun (the 3rd picture/side shot)...maybe even a touch darker. In broad sunlight the silver is just too bright for my taste. Something along the lines of the Steel Gray Metallic they had in 2013.

 

I'm tempted to wait until 2015 to see if GMC comes out with some better paint options because what they offer now is very disappointing.

Yea the silver is bright, but I have a soft spot for it lol

A darker grey would look awesome though

22" wheels?! For real? Rollin gangsta style.... Have fun buying tires for it.

Yes I am a silver guy also. And what I would get now. Here in the Leno vid for his special GM built Camaro is the silver I really like. At about 8:20 in he gives the DuPont code of 907240 for Hydro Silver. It looks like it has a little blue in it like my Silver 04 TSX. Nice color, Come on GM! Not to mention the Camaro would be nice too!

Stock Bridgestone's are about 260/ea. Stock Goodyear Wranglers are about 180/ea. And I'll bet the Bridgestone 's out last the goodyears by 20,000 miles. Worth the money to me. However, I should never have to buy tires. I'm gonna be on a 3 year lease and probably only put 25,000 miles on my truck during that time...

What price did they quote you for the liner?

[Tim99GT]

What price did they quote you for the liner?

 

Well they offered two options. One is their HD and one is their light use option.

 

Option 1) 1/8" rhino line on bed sides and the floor of the bed = $389

Option 2) 1/8" rhino line on bed sides and 1/4" on the floor of the bed = $436

 

I went with option 2. I had this on my last truck and it took a beating over the years. I tossed cinder blocks, hammers, etc into the bed and only had one small chip where it looked like a sharp corner of an object dug into the rhino lining.

^{Beautiful truck.. heck, i would take your old 2008 over my old dusty F150 i am driving right now!}

[Tim99GT]

Well the tint and rhino lining is on.

I went with a 20% tint all around. Front windows are 20% and rear come out to 5%(I think) with the 20% layers over the factory tinted glass. I debated doing 5% all the way, but I really don't need all the attention i would get from the authorities lol

 

Here are a few pictures I snapped real quick. Ill try to get some better ones later.

Darn nice

[BringTheRain403]

Question. Did the Rhino liner do anything to protect against dents? Like if you throw something heavy in it could still dent the bed of the truck right?

You can still dent the bed with a rhino liner. The liner just keeps it from scratching.

[Stex]

Nice, real nice silver with the tint. Dang the La tint laws are tough. More restrictive than Tex.

Any tint beyond factory tint in Pennsylvania is illegal
