Kickoff! - 2006 SCORE Off Road Season
An extensive win record has hollow meaning if a company doesn't produce tires that are useful and affordable for everyday driving and off-roading. The information gathered during racing and incorporated into BFGoodrich's top-drawer Baja T/As is incorporated into more familiar BFG offerings such as the Radial All-Terrain and the Radial Mud-Terrain, as seen on Chuck Strange's Caddie-powered Rolls Royce. Strange relies on his BFG-shod Rolls to extract stricken race vehicles ranging from featherweight Class 11 Beetles to 6,000-pound TTs. Strange's BFGs are wrapped around a set of 17-inch Walker Evans wheels fitted with a one-off set of 17-inch OMF scalloped bead locks. Strange had the 'locks made to match the shape and spacing of the Evans wheels. In this rotation, they seem to fill the voids in the wheels. Changing the entire look of the wheel is a matter of unbolting the rings and re-attaching them two notches in either direction. Cool! As for the color, it's a perfect match for the rest of the Rolls. Those who have met Strange face-to-face know he's anything but drab. View Related Article
