found some cool pics

God Bless America. Here in Oz, if you drove around in a car like that you would be considered criminal. LOWLIFE 4 LIFE!!! As far as that young skinner dude on that rat goes, FAR OUT!!! Looks like someone had too many welding rods and nothing to do with them!!! Awesome work. I suggest a number plate; "SKINRAT".

And that's my two cents.

found another cool one real quick...

Us old farts refer to a "body drop" as "channeled". Kids these days...

I'm glad that the "kids" still shave door handles, but I hardly ever see chopped tops, kinda bums me out, so many newer cars would look cool with their roof chopped.

ive got a 26 x 3 flame tread tire and it's bretty thick, so i was thinking i could shave the tread down and make it a slick. but i dont know how to go about shaving the tread off.

 

[johnny nightwolf]

That's a really good way to make a tire incredibly unsafe!

 

[snfargle]

ive ridden tires down to the canvas, theyre alright is you dont brake too hard and skid
making a slick should be OK shouldnt it?
id have thought as long as you dont shave too much off the tire should be serviceable
id ride with a homemade slick
EDIT
then again i will also ride brakeless so i guess health and safety aint really my thing

 

[johnny nightwolf]

I wouldn't try curb hopping or anything. Even a pot hole could make it blow out. Also, what happens if you actually HAVE to brake hard, or go into a skid? Say, to avoid a car? I wouldn't want to blow a tire out right then. Tires are the most important part of your ride. Don't mess with em. This is just my $0.02, of course, but I'm not going to mess with anything thats that necessary to keep upright and riding. Keep looking for a real set of slicks.
