The wheels are 20in split-rims
Fitted with...
Monster 54in Super Swamper Bogger rear tyres
SUPER SWAMPERS.
The LED front and rear lights are from an Ariel Atom
Illuminating.

This means each rear wheel can be locked independently. You can work out why.

There’s a Wellington boot and spade rack…
And a rotating boot brush which is basically a toilet brush connected to a drill.
