| Hi-lift build
My girls got me one for Christmas. I ordered a diaz chassis and some alum bruiser builder wheels. Here is what I'm shooting for. Let me know what you think.

This is the body and tires I'm gonna use. Are these tires too small for this body?

This is going to be one great built. The wheelsize looks pretty scale to me. |

The body and the tires match perfectly, in fact I don't think I have seen a better combination. This build is going to be interesting to watch.....best of luck |

The first picture almost looked real. I think you'll be alright with your selection.

Agreed, the wheels look perfect with that body. I think this is going to be an awesome rig once done.

Looking good. Is that body a 1:10 chevy silverado? Theres some trucks with that body for £40 and im tempted to get it. What are the differences in size between your tyres and tamiya BFG'S.? |

Nice looking project! Tires may be a tad too small.

Don't worry if the meats are a little small. I'm sure you're used to it by now Actually, the combo looks really good. If you wanted to go really huge, you could cut some narrowed Claws down to 1.9, but I think it'll look good this way. Of course, it'll perform better with bigger tires, so a change is probably inevitable down the road. That body should fit very well |

Wait a minute, you are actually wanting to build a chitty ifs avapukelanche? I am not jealous at all and any attempt to prove otherwise is futile. I am totally against ifs 4x4's, I would never own one, let alone one with a 4x4 sticker on it. Kevin |
