Again, not my personal choice for the rear arches (mine aren't much better like).
Whay size tyres are those you've fitted?

Strange about the colways Vs khumos. I always found colways to be a bigger tyre.
Can't remember what mine measured when they were new.

Nice truck!
I can't stand those colways, i had them in 195 and then 215 and they weren't very good :(
Kumhos much better
