Not sure if it was asked or not, but how bad is the ride with those tires? Have something in mind for a project that would use those. Thanks

WOW that is so awesome. I feel honored. Thank you. I sold it a few months ago due to my living conditions but I must admit I regret selling it. It was a lot of fun. Who knows, maybe in the future I'll make an even better one.

As for the tires... They were ok. Good grip wet or dry, not loud, but laterally unstable. I had to constantly adjust the steering whe on pavement. On dirt they were awesome. Remember though that my car was very very light

I like the non-directional tires. Where did you find them?

Here's my buggy.

Ha I love what you did. The bug looks great. I would add a beam extender though.
