kits are expensive and everything i've seen kind of a pain in the ass to install. i know you have to take the fenders off to mount them. Then you have to get your doors lined back up. If you on a budget I'd find something a little more budget friendly than lambo doors.
Gull wings would be cooler.

What's the point of making doors open a goofy way? Waste of money to me. Especially on a truck man. I know my opinion but it just seems ricer

Yes thats cheap. Do you have a welder, the skills and everything else needed for install? If not my guess is an easy 1000 to have them installed. I could most definitely be wrong though.

IMO, i say keep the mods small...if i was looking at a truck with the works done to it, pop the hood, and see a V6 sitting there I'd be pretty confused....any mods that i do are ones that i can take out and move to my next truck like my amp and subs...but i plan on upgrading really soon to a Hemi or CTD...idk what your situation is with that truck

yeah, but they don't go with my theme, and i think bigger rims help out with leveling your truck, less air to deflate in the front

you know what i'm trying to say?

What's your theme? 20's looks great either way and 17's or 18's look just as fine and aggressive weather lifted/lowered/level/stock.

Been asked in public what 20 size tire i have and they get that "WTF" look when i tell them they are 17's front and 18's rear.

Good luck in your theme. Sounds like you got some good thoughts happening.

Here...this is copied from his sig:

Soon: 20 inch black oem rims, 2 inch drop shackle, raceland electric cutout, tint all the way around
Maybe: JJ headlights, SRT 10 body kit, tail lights, and Night rider scanning LED bar

Nice plan you have there... Is yours Atlantic Blue? Had a roll pan w/ 2" rear shackles and OL removed and thought it looked nice since the rear was not facing the moon. Also helped with wheel hop.
Pics of it here.
