I'm new here. I'm actually a truck guy, but it is going the pro-touring route. I currently have the typical "sport truck" lowered, decent paint, smoothed up interior. It has a 468 big block, Comp Extreme Energy 274H hydraulic cam, Pete Jackson gear drive, 2" full length headers, Edelbrock AVS 800 carb, Airgap intake, 400 turbo & 2800 stall. I have just started the pro-touring project by buying some 18x7 & 20x10 American Racing Hopsters. I'm planning on a 4 link out back (no airbags!) with coilovers, still haven't decided on what to do up front but i will make sure it handles. I have fat sway bars for the front & rear as well. Aluminum fuel cell will be hung under the rear of the bed with a factory door grafted to the bed floor for access. Right now it is a bear to drive with the motor tranny combo so i'll be looking into either a 4l80 or gearvendors to ease the mpg problem.
Here's a link of my website of the truck as it sits now.

After the suspension is done, frame boxed, rear end narrowed, I'll be putting a fresh paint job on it. I plan on either a solid color or a two tone that will not go out of style anytime soon.
Here's a pic of the rims:
