Got a Pair of Front Epic beadlock rims with switch tires.. Getting the rears soon.. Then either paint the beadlocks or get monster green to go with the theme.. Pics to follow soon..

id go for the split six beadlocks as they accept the SC tires rather than the epics that only work with standard 2.2 tires instead of the 2.2/3.0 sc tires...

There are pros and cons, with the 2.2 on both sides you can get proline holeshots and abunch of others from j cocepts, where as with the sc specific wheels you have calibers bowties and goosebumps

Did you paint the outside of the shell? Looks like you did.

Its fairly obvious the protective coating is on the outside of the body still, so he did not paint the outside

Fodarr

Correct. Painted inside of body metallica black. Metallic green on bottom sides and flourescent green stripes. Will post pix soon.
