try and get some red panaracer or haro freestyle tyres with a gum wall.

would look nice, break the white up a bit and cost a lot less than old school white freestyle tyres.

Be nice to see a photo of it in the snow next winter  ;D

You'd never find it  :LolLolLolLol:

Couple things I would change colour wise if it were me, but thats just personal taste. The all whiters tyres take your focus away from the the awesome f+f in my opinion.

I struggled with that on a previous build, wasn't quite happy until someone here used that exact same comment & showed me the light.

The TA is such an iconic 80's old schooler it screams out to be kept as "era correct" as possible & the purists will always have a squint when they see N/S parts adorning a TA build. Now it's finally built tweaking it can be just as much fun.


Either way, it looks great, you're obviously over the moon and its a TA = Job Done  :daumenhoch:
