How big do 24" comp3 2.125's look?
« on: September 14, 2011, 11:30 PM »
I know it's a stupid question .. but are they a lot fatter than 1.75's when mounted?  I dont think there is much in the difference of 1.5 and 1.75's.
Who's using them?
Cheers  :daumenhoch:

Yep they're huge BUT ones with different coloured walls (ie skin, gum, tan) look less quite large, IMO of course.

I think they look OK with a skinwall, here's my GT24 with 2.125 front and 1.75 rear...

I'm with you Dan in the main, I love a fat one up front but my Vector just looks great with a skinny one up front  :-\

Funny that you can't write that in a way that does not have any innuendo in it  :LolLolLolLol:
