It looks great! Are those 1.9 wheels/tires because they looks huge

Very Sexy Rims and tyres.

What's the meaning of 1.9 or 2.2 in terms of Tyre or is that Rim size.

That's the diameter of the rim in inches.

Wish it performed as aggressive as it looks. Didn't like the play the portals had on the axle - there's a lot of weight hanging off each portal, and there was enough movement to make me nervous. Parked it after about 30 minutes of wheeling. Got a few fixes in mind, not sure - might go back to standard axles and pits.

Interesting OSRC.

I had pondered getting portals but might reconsider now.

That's the best thing about these forums.

I'm sure they'd wheel fine, I'm just anal. I did have some very heavy wheels and tires on there. Lighter ones like the stock wheels should be ok.

Plan to drill out top and bottom and mount them with 4 screws ilo just 2 - should be much more solid.

If anyone can figure it out I'm sure you can.
