It runs 225's as standard and I am running 235's on the back. It has got a huge wing on the back and it is rear wheel drive. It grips quite nicely. Also it doesn't have the maintenance and big bills like a 4x4.
Donuts are fun anyway!

Car looks class mate, i dont like black wheels but they look hard on her, way better than the rs wheels
i cant figure out what you mean though, have you made it rwd already or are you just starting to do it?
doing the exact same thing to my mallard escos soon and was wondering what your parts list for the job is?
this is what i think ill get away with:
2wd gearbox
2wd front cross member
2wd front suspension and sterring rack
2wd sump
custom propshaft
i know far more extensive lists have been made and used inc. rear beams diff ect. but these parts look like they'll do the job
any toughts welcome
4wd is for girls
The back wheels look a bit small though but they'll do for the moment
A few other bits and pieces are needed but you have got most of it listed. Just the Oil Pump and spray bar and engine arms, steering rubber - can't think what else from the top of my head.
4x4 has its place (in the fields pulling us 2WD'ers out)!!

You were in the middle of doing it back then some time ago now
It was you
Same car - it was done and then I took it off the car again when we moved to do a few other bits and pieces which then turned into a lot more bits and pieces
