2000 Dodge Dakota R/T
5.9L V8

Yeah I know... The 22's aren't staying. Putting the stock R/T wheels back on tomorrow. Will post more pics tomorrow after I get it all cleaned up!

Hope you guys will still see me as a ORC member and staff of this forum even though I don't own a Ram anymore. One day down the road I will though!

If it were me:

Lose the 22s on CL.
Use money to put a 2/4 drop on.
Paint the stock wheels gloss black and put good rubber on them.
Wash, clay, buff, polish, and wax the absolute hell out of the truck.

Sweet truck Colton! I love the R/T Dakotas. It's going to look much better with the stock 17's, and holy hell, what a system!

My exact plan man. 2/4 might wait awhile, but I'm definitely selling the 22's

lol

not bad!

I think I would have ran on the sound though......a blowthrough I assume? EEK.

And a good detail, 17s, yeah - paint the front bumper, etc.

not bad at all

Well went and got the wheels and didn't realize til I got up there that they're stock 16's off the regular Dakotas... Not gonna fly with me. So the 22's are up for sale or trade. I'll post a CL ad later.

Nice ride kid, I thought it had a Pontiac grille on it.

Needs some go fast goodies to go with the stereo.

Thats a slick Dakota man.. Looks good, but damn those 22s are huge on there.. Good call going back with the stock R/Ts.. I'm sure it will feel a lot better with the smaller rims.
I was actually commenting on your Ram in an old thread of yours and asking if it had been sold because of your sig.. This thread answers my question! LOL!
