Ahhhh no

Will bear this in mind when I go injection, bin the regulator and get a decent pump!

It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out

wow, that's going to be awesome man! why don't you get some wider ones? I think they are available in 13.5 or 14 wide. would this be too much surface area for your wagon, or you just want to use your current beadlockers? just me thinking out loud
