I got the tomahawks today and i think they are the better looking tire on this rig, it looks a bit empty without chassis,bumper etc. as it is now but i like the tomahawks better.

And troy, you need to make more of the 1.9 soft 8:s when you get time! Such a beautiful wheel!

That rim and tire combo is beautiful. Are you going to be running it with the wide stance?

love the overall look. details are very nice too. you did a great job, particularly on the bumper and rear rack. I say keep the roof rack.

Thanks! It will be a Midgard custom chassis, i will get the rails cut and do the bends myself. Coilmounts/shock mounts will be custom made to.

An update on the roof rack, i did the upper rail with brass rod, only thing i could find, pretty strong with the supports in anyway.

Here is how it looks now, only got the mounts left.

Well i painted the roofrack today to see how it would look on the body, im still not 100% sure if its a keeper or not. I usually feel at once if im happy or not but i cant decide on this one, i think it looks a bit to big for the body.

What do you think?

I think it looks great. If I were to change one thing I would make it a tad bit shorter and add light tabs. Keep the good work coming.
