After first pestering D for his Watas over 6 months ago, to receiving them nearly 2 months ago,
I finally have them shoed and fitted!
I think I like the gold, they go well against the grey...
...Dave, no wonder you searched high and low for the perfect 14" offset!
But the fear of the 175's softish sidewalls made me go with the 185's
And last but not least, the 5th wheel. Actually lighter feel than the 185/65 R13's too!
Now to start seriously pondering suspension height and geometry, incorporating a steering column that cannot be substituted for a star picket!
For rear end, I'll get the springs reset but I still want it to be able to carry a load, so I had thoughts of using the leafs (leaves??) out of a ute. Knowing how rare B20's are, can anyone tell me if B120 leafs are the same?

When the "D" hits your eye, like a txt smiley guy...
