I could go with studded general tire grabber AT2,, 27" tall.. not as god in snow but still legal as a winter tire, the pro is that it´s bigger,, tire pattern as t...

Don't worry about the model it's from or the ratio, so long as it's an R160. In Sweden, it is permissible to change the d...

Hi Linus, good to hear you're progressing. You must have built a new garage? How about posting up some pics of the fire that destroyed your last one? It was a big barn that went up in flames, that we used for storage, the garage was ok,, i just made a total rebuild of the inside of the garage, befo...

here is some pics of the fire,,

The brumby is finally home..I feel like a little kid on christmas, i couldn`t help putting on a big smile all the way home, looking in the rearview mirror, seeing that brumby chasing me from the trailer..... Can`t wait to put it in my garage,,
