These are the ones I have, on the rig in the picture are the kit supplied ones.. I do remember that I had to cut the center out but not sure, it might be as you mentioned, but they were at least without the text. I have the newer Hotwheels release as well built by my son, did not reflect on the tires except for them fact that they also have the big rim size on the inside.

Sweet! I like them both but ht e printed one sure look nice! I noticed that there seem to be bigger difference on the front window leading edge between the two, which is more accurate?

Tanks! I Belive they look largely the same except for the text, but then again the tires I refer to are the ones of the first tube frame Bigfoot release. I did end up cutting up a set of the tires with lettering to transplant the outer face to the newer tires, just to get the same center bore instead of the huge inner rim. All the text will probably be removed.. And yes the best tires will proboblsy be printed but I don't have a printer at the moment.

I did cut 4 other tires to transplant the ”outer” side of the tire and cut the inner to make a tire that have the same wheel diameter, which these don’t..

Thanks for those pics! Always nice to see some bad ass trucks!

Bring this back from the dead.. I am building a Bigfoot kit and I do have the first issue of the Bigfoot kit with the Good Year lettering, and the later ones from the #15 I believe, with red and yellow stripe... now to my issue... they have the correct outer rim size.. but the inner one is WAY to big. Is the Lindberg tires any better or is there any alternatives?? The Monster Jam 1/24 die casts are way to small tires. Found some thing on Aliexpress but don't know if they are anything to go in to. Any Ideas?

Great ideas. How a bout cars from the White screen? Movie cars, no limits.

Thanks man! I have seen it in a tread before, but forgot about it 🙂 so thanks! I have now corrected it. Believe it looks way better now.

Good that you started this thread! I won’t be able to host next year due to a new work situation. So it would be good if some one would be up for doing the hosting as well. Not that much that needs to be done but still some. Regarding themes, there have been a great deal of ideas in the past threads for previous years as mentioned. But new ideas are always welcome! btw 2021 was Race cars in disguise.

Made some progress. Made chassis changes to resemble the later style stadium trucks.

i have kind of decided that I won't buy anything newer than 2016.. due to stupid laws and fuel mumbo jumbo and the fact that the cars are getting les serviceable.

Clean looking build, definitely something that would have been seen in the 90’s

Congrattulations!! Came out splendid!
