The webber it’s self, it’s got one of those dual stage throttle that I hate.

Had an idea, teds always complaining about his 195/50/15 tyres being to hard/low profile, so for his birthday (which i only found out about yesterday) I’ll get him some bigger tyres and I’ll get the old ones!

The tyre is too big to fit in the vice so it had to come off the other way. I smell of burnt rubber now.

9″ wide rim, 230mm wide from calculation its got a negative offset of 37.5mm, I have no idea how bad it’s gonna handle.

Will 195mm tyres fit on a 230mm rim? don’t know but I’m going to try to get the tyre shop to do it for me coz I ain’t getting the rest of those tyres off, absolute pita.

I said I was going to use 13″ wheels in the last post, but since I can manage low profile tyre’s for these 15″ I’ll try it, anyway I found out that hilux axles are about 59kg and much more available then atlas axles, perfect compromise between weight and durability.
