nfntruth, that Proton is NICE looking!

Good job.

Thanks Bart, too bad you took the racing stripe idea My safari rack is somewhat unique as well, it's not the normal square/rectangle shape, and its stamped with a large "X" at each junction,

It should fit the unique curves of the Vx perfectly. I will of course post new pics when its on.
As far as the Terra Grapplers, I think of them like Nikes, everyone gets them cause the swoosh on the side...lol. If I could have put any tire I wanted, I would have gone with the Toyo Mud Terrain, that's my favorite as far as looks go, but for a daily driver, no way!!!!

I take it you are talking about kodiak's black racing stripe on his Proton? Yes, looks very good. I don't think he would mind if you copied his idea, eh kodiak?

That's my bad, I had downloaded the desktop wallpaper of the Proton Vx on "mars" and I keep thinkin it was called Bart's Vx...but yes, it is Kodiak's Proton...
With much chagrin,

LOL, no problem, but you should know by now, "If it ain't black, I'm not driving it!"

Man, I can't believe how many combos there are out there. Cool to see them all in one place.

And why can't my VX's paint job look like this:

[pbkid]

Wax on - wax off, gasmask san...

Yours can't look like that cuz you...OFF-ROAD!

Copy away! Yeah, it would be nice to have another stripped VX on the board. But be carful, Put some thought in to it. I’ve seen some pretty bad stripe jobs and I’d hate to see a bad stripe job on a VX. Research the style you want and try and find a good vinyl kit.

Oh mines going soon with a black strip too,so the list keeps growing though

[Vehi-Cross-Az]

heres mine
17x9 Cepek Rims
Continental Cross Country tires
265 65 17

Torsions lifted in the front
not sure what springs in the back
maybe someone can enlighten me on what stock springs
are probably in the rear. thanks.




btw, Billy I just picked up a Ironman myself
making it two in the garage.

[Gussie2000]

I don't know guys,but my mind keeps popping in new ideas about wheels & tires set.

Today i saw one of those BMW X5 with the upgrade wide wheels & tires.

After that moment my thoughts were.hmmmm. my VX would probably looks very peppy with a set of two 20x10'' wheels at rear & 20x8" at the front.

Did any of you guys had a set up done like that before ?

Will this set up cause any down fall on the VX performance.

I haven't choose any set of wheels and tires so far,however i got few on my list.

All input are welcome guys.

[nfpgasmask]

All input are welcome guys.

While I can't say for sure, but wouldn't staggering the wheel size have enough of a weight difference to cause the TOD to be unhappy?
