love it! I will most likely be putting military take offs on my highboy as well soon. My buddy has them on his highboy as well and they look beautiful...
can't wait to see yours all mounted up. My buddies tires rub all over the fenders when on a trail though, just a heads up.
Looks like you have the perfect amount of lift to run them. Hoping my 4" springs that are on the way are enough.

Since we have the same amount of lift i now know what the military take-off's are going to look like on my truck tire/height wise. Looks good, can't wait

[CrypticRacer13]

There gonna look bad ass thats for sure. I think im going to go with the same wheel without the rock rings,(too much of a wheeler look for the truck) so its just going to be there pressed centers an hummer beadlocks, not sure what color i want to have them powdercoated yet thou i still dont know what color the truck is going to end up in the future.

Sweet!
I would avoid as much black as that wheel that you borrowed has. Can't see any lines or borders or anything, me no likey.

Whatever you come up with will be badass for sure! I have a buddy with a '72 highboy on take-off's as well, black rims. Wish i had a picture, might be a wheel scheme you'd be interested in. only pic i have is in black/white for some reason

A buddy just gave me a set of 16.5's for free so i can run take-offs. the rims just happen to be the same exact ones i have now just 16.5". haha. And he is giving me a take-off tomorrow.
can't wait until there are some group shots of our highboys together on take-off's and 4" lift

[CrypticRacer13]

yea i kinda thinking gunmetal grey or even desert tan( one of the colors i want the truck) but i have a powdercoater down in redwood city that hooks it up all the time so i can change my mind whenever haha
For sure we will need to make a weekend camping trip for some phots an wheeling adventures

My Grandfather has propery up in Grassvaley, an i keep my hotord up there in the barn so im up there quite often anyways

That is a good looking truck. I'm looking at 35s when money will allow. I haven't decided on rims yet.
