saw tooths aint that bad to clean as they are mainly flat but a load of spokes
 personally i would go for zu rims on a bfg mud as i love that look, but even on a stt they would look nice CSK Automotive

Km2 are very very good on the road, much better than the old design, as good as the AT's I think

Been clear and dry since lunchtime, don't tell Brendan
Pictures of STT's in my TD5 gallery (on steels). Must admit I am glad that I did not go the KM2 route, the STT's are better than my BFG AT's on the 110 doing road work. I suppose it all comes down to personal choice in the end - and cost !

Have you got any pics of the Mickey T's on your truck? Looking at your gallery - how did the STT's perform in the snow? Proud owner 110 Utility XS Ex RR Sport HST V8 Ex Td5 90 |

On things like wheels and tyres you will NEVER get agreement on what looks best/best colour/best tyre size/tyre.
A few pointers. Ensure wheel is approved, some new wheels are coming into UK market which have not got approval etc (TUV) Check load rating off the wheel. Ensure that they are good for a laden 110 Turning circle, apart from adjusting wheel stops, assuming same wheel offset/tyre diameter the width of the tyre is important. i.e.wider the tyre worse the turning circle. M/T in general have greater stopping distance in the wet then equivalent A/T. OK going back to an old study M/t had at least 10% greater stopping distance in the wet then A/T. Spacers, increase offset of wheel, will not go down arguent of more stress (or not) on wheel bearing. Inform insurace company. Tyres can cost s. Long life of tyres hope offset price. BFG will do 60k+ miles with ease. Our choice of tyres are BFG M/T & KM2 255/85/16. On Puma anthracite Zu rims Brendan |

I have to say I like this idea, get a good look and you don't have to cram even more parts into an overflowing garage. I have a question though. Do you take your alloys to a normal refurb place or do you take them to a specialized place and get them powder coated? I am looking at the Edinburgh and I have found an area at Pentland that has both kinds of coatings. Can anybody recommend a place around the Edinburgh area or south.
