White Jeep Wrangler with Forgiatos and 37-Inch Mud Tires

Here's an interesting Forgiato project we've missed last month. It's a custom Jeep Wrangler 4-door with a chopped body and some pretty weird wheels.

From the stripped down bodywork to the bull bar up front, the Jeep screams "I'm a trail tool". However, things then start to get a little weird. The whole car is painted in gloss white with a pearl effect, which is not something you want to have on a rig that will get damaged all the time.

Then come the wheels, which are absolutely massive. Forgiato made them to order with a 26-inch diameter and a massive 14-inch tread. They are very deep, very glossy and will never last a day in the wild with those hundreds of fragile little rivets that hold the rim and the dish together.

The tires are just as interesting. They're 37-inch mud tires and we have to say that we've never seen such low profile offroad tracks before. That's probably because they've been made to order...

The Wrangler has Fox suspension with double shocks, so it should ride nicely. The factory doors have been swapped for Bestop tubular frames that let the custom white-on-black leather interior shine through all the time.

The project was done by Underground AV from Florida. It was supposed to be revealed at the 2014 SEMA show, but because the company that made the tires didn't have them ready in time, the Jeep couldn't make it.

Now it seems that it's been shipped to the opposite end of the world, since Forgiato Japan just released photos of the car a few hours ago and said the Jeep will be on display at the 2014 Cross Five Japan Tour Final starting in Port Messe Nagoya.
