So, had the truck about a month and finally making some mod progress. My son has named her marshmallow and it's a 2013 Ram 1500 CC 4x4 with 8sp in bright white. Fully loaded minus only the air suspension as that would have messed up my mod plans.

I live in Ottawa, Canada and marshmallow is my daily driver. Kept the stock wheels for winter tires. Didn't get a chance to do a full detail this weekend but that is coming.

So far I've added the following most of it thanks to Andrew at Bully Performance:
- Moroso catch can
- Tinted windows
- Bakflip F1
- Bestop Powerboards
- Bilstein 5100's set at 1.4
- Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ's in 305/55/20
- BMF Novakane's in 20x9
- Custom wheel adapters from Motorsport-tech
- Weathertech floor mats
- Colour matched Ram 2500 flares
- Line-x bedliner

Debating a small body lift or cranking up the bilstein's to 2.1 and adding a .75 rear spacer. Thoughts on progress so far?

What do you guys think? Again, debating a small lift and then I need some power adders.

Thanks, I researched the wheels a ton and pics don't do them justice, they're shiny and the machined accents really stand out on the gloss black.

That's your truck on the thrown

And me on the outside :badger_1:

Bard, love the truck. Looked amazing in person and I can only imagine what it looks like now.

I personally like the way she stands now. Gaps are perfect

Thanks guys, appreciate it. Might look into some gears as well if somebody figures out a non 3k option for the 2013's

Good thing your son didn't name it Sta-Puff; you'd have to find an old Sailors cap :signs6:

I agree. I like the not huge lift look you got going. Looks great!

LOVE those wheels. Complex enough to look custom, but still very clean and simple.

I had to get custom adapters to mate them up and grind about .25 off the ends of the wheel studs but it was worth it. Didn't have to trim any thread which was my goal. Rims are a +25 offset actually with a 1.5" adapter in behind them. It essentially makes them a 20x9 with -12 offset. VERY, VERY happy with the advice and parts that Bully (fastnugly / Andrew) provided.

Nice looking rig you have there! Looks one of these stickers would be appropriate on your back window ;-)
