Goodyear 32x11.50R15LT Wrangler MTR's were mounted on Petroworks custom 15x8" chrome wheels with 1 1/4" backspacing. Gary says that these wheels work great and give more body clearance, but we thought they would provide too much scrub radius during turns. When we mentioned this, Gary says that he absolutely does not notice any more steering difficulty, especially with their power steering kit installed. Petroworks extended fender flares keep the vehicle street legal and keep debris off the occupants. A Quick Air II 12-volt compressor makes quick work of airing up the Goodyears up after a day of four-wheeling.        You can see why this Samurai is a great source of pride for Gary and the rest of the crew at Petroworks. As we said earlier, we saw the vehicle in action and can report that it works great on the trail and on the highway. What really sets it apart is that you can duplicate everything here by giving Petroworks a call and ordering the parts - even the brand new VW 1900cc turbo diesel! That should quiet all your friend's disparaging remarks about "rice burners . . ."
