Ant,

I don't suppose you are planning to do Big Bang this year & combining it with doing a set of tyres there ? (i.e mine!) Ideal exposure

No worries if not - I couldn't work out if you are based in Stafford or Nottingham ?

Will.

Hi, I'm in Stafford.

I will hopefully be trading a few shows this year, not sure if the big bang will be one of them yet.

I'm only a few miles away from Bustypes if your going?

I live very close to junction 14 m6 about one mins drive from the motorway

Managed to polish another fuch this evening, whole tube of autosol on 3 rims :shock:

Going to white/red wall them at the weekend.

What do you guys reckon red or white? i think white would look better but if they are to go on frank they will end up red. Hmmm

your thoughts?







There is a strong chance that the fronts(14") will not fit due to the dropped spindles.

I think you should go for a small red line on the tyres.

Are there other colors possible?

Yes, at the moment i can do white/red/yellow and blue if there is a demand other colours will also be available.

I've got a new batch of white and red on its way from the states as we speak,

[ant]

off topic a little but I fancied a change from the red and added some whitebands on the mr whitewalls little van this weekend.

 

[cunning plan]

I prefer the white..

Cool lil caddy..

Question. Can you do this for any tyre - I mean - how do you get around the writing already on the tyre? Do you somehow scrape it off leaving a flat surface?

 

[ant]

Craig i use a proper whitewalling machine...... it turns the wheel and at the same time lets you buff the tyre. Creating a matched smooth surface for the stripe applicator.

I like the white.......... i've just took delivery of some new red from the states, it looks awesome 8)

 

[cunning plan]

Arr I see :mrgreen:

I will be coming to you for some whites when my bus isnt in pieces :shock:
