Hey all,
I need to buy new tyres for Beefas mags and I want nice ass fat ones (the ones on him now are fat and look so sex hehe).
Wats the best size to put on the kidney beans so they look fat?

Thanks :D

Lynda

How wide are the rims?
Id say you could go 165 tyres, as a guess.

I have 165/70 R10's on my 4.5" rims, the tyres do stick out beyond the guards a wee bit, should be fine if you have flares.

Yep, go the 165/70-10s, but you don't want real phat ones (eg Falkens) due to the 4.5" rim width.
Barney has Bridgestone SF226s on these rims, they look good.:)
