Got a new tyre for the back door, as i had a 5th modular i wanted a more suitable tyre to match the bf g's. Seen this on ebay, £25 QUID, new CAMAC TERRA. Just thought it will look better on the rear door than the standard bridgestones and if i needed to fit it on the jimny it'll be the same size at least as the bf goodrich (215/75)



Quite like the tread on them, its like a bf goodrich all terrain but more agressive?

decided to do the writing on the walls white so it at least ties in with my others :-)





Still need to fit the caster bush's at some point and now ive also got a nice shiney towbar to fit :-) :-) Thanks santa haha!

tyre mounted to Modular





Fitted to back door (wasnt sure if it would fit on!) Just right, doesnt cover number plate or hit bumper :-)






Looks better than the old 3 spokes!



Also a random one after a light dusting and a quick play about....






Over and out!

I only wanted the rear as a cheapy to be a "more suitable" spare but really like the tread on those camacs!

Prefer my bfg muds though!

haha, nahh i fitted it on myself cos i wasnt sure if it would go straight on or not..

I did fit it, look and thought...PFFT "have to straighten that"

Yeh theres a bolt holding the centre cover on (if yours is the same) then three bolts usually holding the wheel on to the door. Probably one locking nut aswell.
