ahaha... lil mentohz on the whoring beadlocks... I think I'm good on rc's for now gotta build my 240... I sampled em at spocom... hyper drift track and where were you?!
 
Brah dose rims is sick glad dan at mayhem was able to help you out and thx for supporting mayhem! Best beadlocks to date. I was gonna have a wide set mad made but decided against it. Looks sick tho. Good job man. In december ill be returning to the islands and hosting a scale comp. Ur welcome to come.
 
thanks guys... yup its hawaii style haha... the tundra is the street/trail truck and i gotta finish the chevy thats the leaf sping scrambler/beater.

do i qualify as team mayhem engineering too? ahaha
 
so ive always wondered how the hawaiian tire stretch got started? what's the purpose of stretching the tires?
(i'm talking 1:1 here, not rc)
 
Just a thought but since drifting and jdm imports are a big thing here, a lotta cars stretch tires, so I think maybe they took the idea and used it for their trucks. I think it's only for looks too cause god knows wheeling a truck with tires like that is just a debead waiting to happen

First off, that's sick, and do you mind sharing the specs on the rim width? I bought a hilux to do the exactly the same thing, might have the old skool alcoas made

The tire strech thing dates back before drifting at least in hawaii,your talking late 80's? maybe even earlier?

I remember seeing stretched tires on mini trucks back in the mid 80's here in So. Cal.

Drifting has been around longer than the late 80s
