replacement rear tyres ordered today .... stepping up the rear end a tad 

What size and make did you go for??

Sounds good the proportions have to look right between tyre and wheel and front to back

Buggy looks awesome mate! I've got the same shape and trying to get mine up to this standard! Just wondered if you were selling your old seats? Tried getting some buckets for mine but seems they are all to wide to sit in the pans! Many thanks!

255/50/17 ... FULDA ... managed to bag 2 brand new for £110 delivered !!! 

they normally seem to go for around £80-84 ish each - so quite pleased with my find

hopefully they will arrive in the week - ready for swap over at the weekend

they should give me the chunkier look I need - finding 17's to fit onto 9.5j rims is a nightmare - loads of tyres are taller, but then I would foul on the spline tube that sticks out in front of the rear wheels 

I did loads of checking all different sidewall combinations until I found one that I think will do the job - then went on the quest to actually find some tyres that matched my calculations

I found this gizmo very handy ........ http://www.willtheyfit.com/ ........ I'm sure it will help others out there too, feel free to use guys

Also where did you get your roll bar done? Is it 3inch tube?

Phat is definitely a word I would to describe it! Where you selling your old bucket seats by any chance?

Cheers

Sorry just seen this,  you can fit swing axle torsion bars and spring plates to get rid of them but the rear will be a little stiffer and the plates need shortening/new swing arm slots cutting in them.
