Thanks man!
Yeah, it was a big upgrade! The ones a had before wasn't good for a spare!
The rims damn solid! Seems to be good offroad rims.

Hi Snabelost
Much snow this year? Are those wheels off a Toyota? and where did you get them.

Yup, they comes from a Toyota, a 4runner. I bougth them from a friend, Tommy, in Sweden.
Edit: No, you see the snow on the pics, it's only about one or two inches and that sucks! I want feets of snow!!!

the hotter it is then the less "
feathers" there are

Thanks!
The floorjack is a 12 ton guy! I need it because i have to lift the car with me inside sometimes!
The workshop is heated by a 300 kilowatt heater and if it runs for about an hour the 200 square meter garage is at 20 degres celsius!
It's not my garage however....
The tires worked great, i tested them this weekend. Here is a pic:

It's damn nice!
It was good for having a party into also!
This is a nice option for a garage!
