Definitely uggo wheels and tires, but no one seems to do those right on 1:1 custom 4x4s in my neck of the woods.

I prefer a much taller sidewall and never liked those KMC wheels, never understood why Vanquish released scale versions.

As for the Camaro, I ignore those no matter what wheels are on them.

(and yes, that was a HUGE Great Dane in the back)

Looks like a fun ‘hold my beer’ military moment.

Here's the full vid but unfortunately it doesn't show anymore after it landed.
But vid shows more of the tanks capability.

Tanks of some sort have floated at least since my Dad was in the Service. APC I think is the proper term, but it's still a tank derivative.

I wonder how the guys back faired in the video above. I know the famous M1 jump scene from the commercial years ago resulted in some injuries to the people on board if memory serves.

And, tanks floating...

That's NOt a tank, it's an Amphibious Assault Vehicle, AAVP7A1 to be exact...

Marine Corps specialty vehicle used to get grunts/supplies off of ships, move *very slowly* across the water then drive out of the surf zone onto the land and go cross country. I was a crew chief on one of those.

Relatively light armored, only capable of stopping up to .50 CAL, beyond that they turn into Swiss cheese. Ours were equiped with the Browing M2 heavy barrel .50 cal and the MK19 40mm cannon. We were capable of inflicting much more damage than we could take.
