    Here is the wheel/tire setup's I've been looking at.


    I like the car!, at some point id love to have a lifted bronco for offroading.

    this picture made me wonder though, what are you planning on using the car for? Just street driving, or are you building it for offroading as well? if your going to be offroading it a lot, definitely keep the set of wheels/tires in the original picture because you want small diameter wheels + big sidewall knobby tire for 4x4. The wheels/tires in this pic look like aluminum wheels with smallish tires (good for street driving but not 4x4)

    That said, great work! and props for starting a build at 14. keep motivated on it!

      The current wheels and tires I have on there are planned to be winter tires, since the wheels I want are similar to the ones above but polished, and rain + polished or chrome do not mix very well. The truck is going to be used to haul, tow, and street driving yeah because I live by everything so I won't go too far.

          That comment isn't really relevant to this thread.

              I dig the truck a lot, big fan of broncos. But I dislike your choice in wheels. It really bugs me when people put those modern wheels on trucks built in the early 90's, as it doesn't look right at all.

                Exactly what I was thinking. I like this truck so far, but seeing the wheels you want for it really put me off. If this thing is only for the street, why be lifted so much? More than impractical at that point, and even if it's for aesthetics, those modern wheels with tiny tires makes it look poorly put together. Just my 2 cents.

                  38 or 40" tires aren't very tiny. The truck currently has 36" super swampers so I don't understand why you think it'd put smaller wheels on a larger lift. The way I just saw " why is it lifted so much? " compare that to when people ask you why your car is so lowered or why the wheels are slanted. To be honest I don't see how modern wheel and tire setups look bad but everyone has there own opinion. Anyway Saturday we're taking this thing to get aligned since I haven't aligned it since I bought tires for it.

                        No Guys you're getting it wrong, Luxury Rollers is a car group that myself and a couple of people made. It's not a rolling paper company or anything like that.

                            Firstly,I don't want to get this thread locked or give myself a bad reputation by arguing with you. Now because it has that in the logo means it's a company for rolling papers? No right? We took it as inspiration when designing a logo. No need for all the drama.
