Cheers mate smile

All depends what width wheels you got on the van and how low you going!
Radars are 5.5" so i would go 195 or 205/60 or 65/15's on the back for a fatter look.
The fronts totally depend on how low your going.i used to have 165/50/15's which are the slam tyres that a few places sell..
For a not so low profile maybe something like a 175/55/15's smile

I was going to say, I thought it was nitros at first and then looked a bit deeper and thought ahhh good idea you hear some horror stories!

I find it funny that adding yellow makes a difference, sometimes they use orange too! All you done there was what some pro would have done and charged you the earth for it!

You do some nice work up there in you hide away!!!! smile

Cheers mate..
If only i had leccy i would live in the garage i reckon lol

I tried it with just white at first but you could see the original had more of a yellow tint to it.
It took a lot of adding and mixing to get it right today but at least its right now.
