i would reccommend craig @ extreme engineering, brisbane southside. Relocating shop around corner from where he is now. Probably wouldn 't be able to do to after x-mas. You wont be dissapointed with his work.

Keep us up to date with the progress as im thinking, i need bigger wheel tubs in my LC & was wondering who to take it to, im currently running a 26 x 8.5/14" M/T slick behind an alloy headed 383 small block chev which has ran a best of 10.44 @ 144mph & really need to go bigger in the tyre department, looking for something around 28 x 10"

Sorry to keep thread stealing.
Anyone done them themselves? I don`t think it looks too hard.
