Haha, no doubt. I just browsed some of your build thread. I like the fact that you built your truck, not just with refurb replacement parts, with raw metal. Great job!

Build Thread? I think you have my truck confused with some other. I did not post a build thread. The build on this truck is 7 years old and I bought it just last Winter. I had to replace some things and change a few other things to get it like I like it to look but I cannot take any credit for the initial build. Thanks though!

Are they reverse mount? And what size are the tires and who are they by? Also what did you do to your truck? Lowered?
LOVE!! your truck!

Sorry, was looking back thru the photos on here & saw you asked about the rims & it doesnt appear that I saw your kind comments & it dosnt appear that I answered either.

Incase the info is still needed Rudoo:

The rims are US Wheels from Summit Racing 15*8s on the rear and 15*6 on the front. The standard elcheapo rim that you can get almost anywhere.

Tires are also from the US. They are Goodyear 235/75R/15s on the back and 205/65R/15s on the front. I would have preferred BFG Silverstones? as they priced about the same but they werent in stock & the container was leaving for New Zealand a few days later

Front & rear suspension & steering is stock Jaguar XJ6 sedan. Nothing was cut out of the chassis or the suspension. The rear is still in the Jaguar cage.
