New 18" Moto Metal 961s on 265/70/18 BFG Rugged Terrains. 32.6 inches diameter and NO RUBBING AT ALL (even at full lock) I am planning to do a new exhaust today and tint the front windows soon.

Here's another pic. I actually quite like how she sits now and I am still waiting on a leveling kit for the front. I will then install Rancho 5000 shocks and will be ready to ride. I put a new muffler on it today so it sounds pretty nice now, too. Thanks for the suggestions, tho.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I got a muffler called a Pro-Flow or something? I got my buddy at the exhaust shop (We do alot of biz with them) to throw it on for me for like $80 parts and labor. It's apparently a Flomaster imitation?? For the money spent, I am thrilled

Yeah I am not crazy about the moldings...they are starting to crack up on the front of them. But I need to find a good how to on cleaning it all up afterword. Body work is NOT my strong-suit and I am still removing decals/pinstripe glue from the sides currently. I will definitely take the suggestions into consideration so thanks everyone.

Oh and this may be a noob question but what the heck is PTM?
