They are 30x9.5 15s Maxxis MT754. I might try and fit 31's in the future but, will probably need a different offset wheel.

those pics, have just inspired me to redo my suspension on my coily, mine is sagging badly.
if you go the 31s go for the 15x8 -24 offset rims, or keep the tire skinny like a 9.5 instead of a 10.5 and you should be fine.

looks realy good mate. Btw, are they recaro seats out of an EVO?they look sick.

I will do some more work to it in the new year, kind of enjoying not working on it at the moment. Yes seats are from an EVO 6.

Any more pics?
Done any more to it?

So the Recaro seat came out of an EVO and bolted in without too much trouble?
Or did you have to make up custom rails etc?

I have sold it and am working on a new project. It just didn't flex up enough.

Yes I do sometimes think I should have just put Toyota diffs in it. Wait till you see my new project! Will start a new build thread soon.
