15 euro a piece and I think you understand why he doesn't have them.... $200 for tires!

Yeah I agree they are very expensive, but I also know that some guys will invest to get every last detail correct. With how detailed this build is now, I thought that he might be looking for tires like these and since I happened to come across them I thought I'd post. Maybe after winning the lottery?

True there are some items you just have to have, but I am pretty sure I remember Lynn saying they weren't high on the priority list.

Thanks to all for the compliments. I know all about the military type tires. Willy has some on one of his trucks. Price was the reason I am not using them on this truck. The Crossforce tires give the Stude much better traction than the military tires would. The military tires are solid rubber, not hollow and much harder than the Crossforce. I have not worked on the Stude for about a month trying to get the Bud truck done for Indy an making parts for other truckers. Once the Bud truck is finally finished, I am going to hit the Stude hard to get the rocket rails done. Another straight truck in the works after the Stude and then a metallic King hits the workbench. The metallic King is not going to be stock by any means.
