pics of wheels on the bus

[strongy]

ive just poped these tyres on the rims to see what they look like on the bus,i like the look but not sure its going to be very comfey :lol:

Nice

Have you painted them?

Is that a fibreglass front bumper? If so, where did you get it from? Any problems with fitting?

Cheers,


Mike

no its not a fibre glass bumper i welded the 3 parts togeather,shame about the jk step rubbers they need a bit of work to look any thing like

i`m no mechanic Strongy but i would think that if your suspension set up is in good condition it should be fine . The tyres look pretty lo pro so you may feel a few more bumps than if you had standard set up . Personally i think it looks the nuts colour and wheels , :wink: Quality son 8)

thanxs grazy ive got to be honest im chuffed with it,should be ready for mot in about 2 weeks,its been along old slog,and cost double what i thought it would but its been fun,the missus wants me to do an oval next to match, for weding cars, :shock: what wedding :shock:

 

[Grazy]

Strongy as long as youve got good shocks and you havnt gone 2 wide on the tyres I wouldnt recommend any wider than 185s you will be cool . I hope you,ve changed all the ball joints and track rods etc as they will get hammered if you havnt :wink:

P.s the wheels look great with the colour scheme

everything on the steering apart from the beam itself is brand new,the next thing to buy are the shocks, 11" between the 2 mounts,there not going to be very big :lol:
