I used the ones off of my other Peterbilt,I would like to get some more for future builds.....since I like the lowered look.

This may sound weird,but if we were in prison....I would protect you in the showers lol,lol:eek:.the wheels are awsome!

Hey Nick,I could not bring myself to tear up the other one,so this is
a completely different truck!:D

Yes the 3" are for lowpro's,you would need 3" 1/2 to 4" for stock tamiya tires.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Here are a few more mock up pics!
I cut my roof to modify it so it will look like a pete.

The sleeper will be a high-top unibilt.

I am scared to death cutting up this body:eek:.

Low Pro tires? I completely missed that! I thought the rear fenders, with the way they hug the wheels, were fooling me into thinking the rear tires looked different. Now I see!

Looking forward to seeing what else you have up your sleeve!

Looks like your on your way to another killer looking ride Troy. Pretty cool to see so many members hand crafted parts all together on one truck.
