Re: Andys half datsun ute.
profile does look a little small on the front compared to the back. But what other tyre size could you run? I'd just leave it and slam it
Also loose the rear mud guards under the try. They look like trailer guards

The datsuns getting closer to being worked on!
Tried a 185 60 today matches the rear better but doesnt look baloon spec so im going to get two of them for the front.
Im going to paint the metal round the tray black, and lob those gay mudflaps dont worry.

Re: Andys half datsun ute.
you should lower and narrow the deck too
Re: Andys half datsun ute.
I dont really need to narrow the deck with the 10s now was going to. And im bringing the wheels up to meet the deck instead of bringing the deck down.
Re: Andys half datsun ute.
Lowered it today turned out sweet. Got enough travel all round and its sitting at 110mm. The front was a bit low so had to roll the guards pretty hard to stop guard rub.

Re: Andys half datsun ute.
The 8s were 100 each and 10s were 150. There are always cheaper 2nd hand ones on tm but because i wanted two different sets i had to go new. Still not a bad price.
Would look good rusted up on the rat ute.

Re: Andys half datsun ute.
That's choice. It never ceases to amaze me how much wheels + lowering affects the look of a car.
