What do you do about the chrome trim pieces with aftermarket wheels? I don't like the "exposed rusty hub center" look some trucks have when they switch wheels. Looks like 32's are the perfect size for Gen1's though <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

If you use steel wheels, the Mitsu hubcaps and springs can be reused. If you use aluminum rims, I'm not sure if the Mitsu mag springs/hubcaps can be reused. Otherwise, you can search through wheel catalogs, like American Racing, for aftermarket hubcaps, spinners, and the like.

Ummmm....... paint the hubs. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Here are 32s - 265/75/16s on U.S. Wheel 16s before a 1.5" rear spring lift was done:

At my request, I got three center caps when I got five new Unique rims (two caps for the rears and one for the spare).

Maybe arrange this into a sentence?? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Body lift from rodger brown @ www.4crawler.com
you can crank your torsion bars, OR get a tai lift kit that may or may not fit a gen1.
