That looks like an awesome setup, How wide are you at with the dark impact rims? Did you have to narrow them up?

 

[crawl rookie]

Yup, but i only cut the inner side a bir aso no hacking and glue'ing needed"thumbsup"

Im right at 288mm/11.33, i not completely statisfied but im waiting on some beadlock wheels from rc4wd i designed that will bring it to 10,8 inches without having to mod your knuckles or anything;-)

Why are you waiting for a spur, especially for 5 weeks.
You know, a Kimbrough spur will fit the Axial spur gear adapter........
