It's good to see what choices others make. I'll keep the wheel diameters at 21" to keep good fuel economy and top end speed (larger tires increase the gear ratio and prevent the engine from max RPM). I'll keep the 12" rims to have as much sidewall as possible to soften the ride. Think it through and often the best solution is what the engineers originally specified. Going with Yokohama Super Digger II tires for good on & off road performance.

Nice video 👍 Could you provide information on that nice muffler (exhaust) please. Thank you

I love the narration format of your videos. The production quality is excellent! Great job, I’m dying to get one of these trucks.

I'm very jealous of having a connection for powdercoating. I have so many things I wish I could coat.

sick video 🔥 loving the Kei truck 🚚 👌

I've just noticed the sizes are wrong at the end for the Steelies. They're 16". Only took me 4 months to notice 🙃

One more thing if you don't mind, what's the width of the wheel? The factory options are 12-inch wheels: 4.5Jx12 or 5Jx12 or 13-inch wheels: 4.5Jx13 or 5Jx13. I've found sleelies with width of 6J. Not sure if they fit. Will appreciate your opinion.

​@Kosta Du all depends on the offset. You can make anything fit as long as it clears brakes, springs and bodywork.

Those BBS’s look like they have been living with the Great Barrier Reef for the last few decades, that’s insane.

I certainly am. I'm also considering selling my winter wheels for the truck if they tickle your fancy? Having a bit of a garage clear out 😅

Awesome video mate! Think you wheel specs at the end are a bit wrong... you’ve got your steelies down as 13s, but pretty sure they’re 16s. Cheers!

Any chance you could provide you new top speed compared to stock? Trying to collect some data on diameter and width effect on speed. Looks great

I have the exact same BBS wheels on my 1995 Honda ACTY Van. Did you have to change out the wheel studs? I noticed my BBS wheels wouldn't allow the stock studs to stick out enough so the lug nuts can thread onto them.

I haven't mate no. There's around 20mm showing through the wheel, but I'd need another 7mm to fully fill the nut.
