nice mate. where near on twins but mines a td42. keep us posted on further mods.

Looks great mate, all it needs now is some Flares and some Mud Flaps and it will be Sweet As!.

Note that you will get allot of attention from the local Coppers with No Mudflaps mate. once you start to Mod it on the edge of Legal then Mudflaps will be the easy thing to get pulled over for. Put some one mate.

Flexi Flares are a Winner too mate, although t looks like that is what you have taken off it?

theyre the mongrel retreads off a guy called Tibi on ebay, and the wheels are off ebay too! all new :)

tyres cost $470, and the wheels $280 + $50 for tyre fitting and balancing off the same guy. pretty happy with them!

however, am NOT using these on the road until i have to. theyre purely for trips, so theyll stay chained up in the garage until then :)

sounds like youre in a boeing 747 when youre driving :\

Thanks for sharing!

What profile are those tyres? I think the pattern makes them look to me to be skinnier than they are!

[KL570]

haha yeah they do a bit, theyre a 32x10.5 (pretty damn close to a 33 with this retread!)

[healy]

Nice rig there mate

[nomadTech87]

[KL570]

Thanks guys! Pretty much the same
As simex centipedes. Grip like a monkey with cramp ons!
