Yeah that green with gold wheels is a great combo.

Yup, old time British Lotus Racing livery colors.
I remember,
Do you remember the study on the night time visibility and safety of different car colors ?
Done back in the 70’s
Bar none the British racing green was in more night time and bad weather crashes than any other color. On and OFF the track.
It’s the base color of camouflage and the active background is the rest.
Out in the country and in the city the British Racing Green was Invisible in all but direct sunlight.

It’s still one of my favorite colors but you just have to drive it like a motorcycle.
Drive like a dump truck, be seen
But at the same time think like you’re invisible.
Thustly is how I stayed alive in my crazy Crotch rocket days.

Back when I was a MSF Instructor I told the students the best way to ride is to assume you are invisible and act accordingly. I still do that when I ride now.

The wheels really compliment the color of the truck.

your stickers are showing....

You went with 17" wheels.... What did you do with the 19" stock stuff?
Still got em might sell em. I'll be using this truck to drive dirt paths and along the railroad so I figured the extra sidewall was better than extra rim

I like the wheels. Good option, only for me, I don't care for more to have to clean. The more spokes, the more I have to get a brush in there, that is what I don't care for. But yours do look great.
