It's funny, the M & H Racemasters I have are DOT approved. Yet they say right on their website, "do not drive in the rain!" .Mine are 14 inches on the ground. The center six are totally flat, with four inches of tread either side of that. I am going to go back to Mickey Thompson's soon. I've driven them in the rain, they aren't that bad at all. Same with Nitto NT555r's.

At least those ones you have are treaded all the way across. Probably not bad to drive at all. They loo kinda cool!

Here we are pretty much done, still needs to be buffed out but its been so hot here so I'll wait for some cooler weather. paint looks pretty good as is.
got the motor back in and running good, interior is partially in, seats, carpet door panels and some trim, still waiting on rear glass before I can do rear interior.
Still have a bunch of little details to do but that will all work out.

My credo
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
That looks like good stuff for our calendar project.

Well the work continues, finished up the interior with a custom made console. (yes I know the switches are not perfect, but they look ok for me )

Ok. So are you ready to take a couple really good poser shots and email them to me for the TRS calendar project?

For that truck, I would be thinking posed in a scenic field or on a mountain road with cool background. Maybe in front of a building with interesting architecture. Or staged on a drag strip / street race - like an action shot but don't do anything illegal. I'll get a link to the calendar thread and you can see a few of the other entries. Above all, make the truck the center of attention in the photo. Interesting backgrounds are cool but shouldn't overpower the main subject, your awesome masterpiece. They should complement it.
