wow they look good,how do they behave on the road and what size are the tyres if you dont mind me asking.thanks.

They are 31x10.50x15, not sure how they behave on the road as it only goes in straight lines at the moment as it catches on the wing and bumper until I can get it lifted but can imagine they are very loud!!!

Also I need to check with Bronco to see if they are aloud on the road??

Looks like you need to sort out the wheel arches, from that rear view the bodywork doesn't look like it covers the tread, so it isn't road legal like that.

A set of mk2 T2/Mav arches might cover the wheels, I can cheak how far out they come if you want the measurements. By the looks of it I think you will have to remove the rear mudflaps before your new tyres eat them up

:
Could I ask where you got the rims from as I like the look of mods on a T2/Mav :smile:

There is still a lot to do yet, just seeing what they looked like (couldn't resist) 8) 8)

It will have to have arch extensions, body lift and replacement mudflaps.

Got them of good old ebay, 4 wheels and tyres and 3 spare tyres for £135. BARGAIN 8) 8)
