I’ve had just about enough of all these idiots with the retarded big ass rim thing and bragging about how big their rims are like its a big dick thing. A couple friends & I have kinda had this idea in the back of our heads for years but now I really want to do it, basically build a monster truck/car with monster shiney chrome/gold/whatever rims instead of big mud tires. I’m talking BIG rims. At least twice whats out there now. Retarded big. Like 60"s. Obviously I don’t want to drop alot of $$ into this as its mostly just a joke. I dont care if the thing vibrates, bounces all over, etc. I’m basically going to find the cheapest pos I can, rattle can it up, fab a huge lift on it and bolt the wheels on
So the question is, whats a monsterly large circular metal thing
that I could find 4 of and weld/fab into something that at least kinda resembles a wheel? As far as tires go we were thinking taking semi tires and cutting the sidewall out thus leaving you with a lo-pro tire but I still dont think thats going to be big enuff… maybe caterpillar wheels/tires or old farm tractor parts?
we need names and a theme too
like trump towaz or some shit, have $'s in the paint and as the spokes in the rims
yeah havent decided on the car yet, its gonna end up being whatever I can drag out of a field/junkyard/tifft
I mostly need ideas on materials that could be used for the wheels, ideally something thats already a wheel so i dont have to worry about truing the outer rim and then piecing it together, etc
yeah diggin that bigfoot- something along those lines is right what I’m lookin to do only with low pro tires
of course there will be some $$ involved, like I said the car is no prob just whatever shitwagon I come across. Then if I can find some rusty old tractor wheels some farmer is just looking to give away I’ll just fab up some lug pattern adapter plates and torch out a spoke design
I like the ones vdub posted- add some more spokes, shine them up & got urself some like 60" daytons lol
these actually arent too bad as is- just shine them up vv
actually I have thought it thru enough to make it kinda fly- tires won’t need a bead. Know anything about implement tires? They’re not air filled, they’re foam filled. A 2pc outer rim bolts together in the middle and sandwiches the whole thing together
and anyways who said anything about engineering anything? You obviously missed what I said about doing this cheap, and you obviously dont know anything about doing your own fab work since you would know that it costs pennies on the dollar compared to having shops do shit for you
