Default New tyres.

Changed tyres (Got a set off a London Black Cab £40 for all 4 - brand new) and no longer have the wide white walls - I think I prefer it this way.

Just need to lower the rear end a bit maybe ???

They were bought buy a fella for mock up on his hotrod but he never got round to using them. Black cab chassis are often used in rods over here - as they are about the right size and are plentifull and strong.
