hey twisteddragon33 - go to page 1 of this thread and look where I started.

I come to this forum to learn and share - my first attempt wasn't that pretty to look at - it's all about where you go with it and how you improve.

Where did you get that profile for the tire ? .. I am going to use the same method as you, to make my tire, and I tried displacement but its not too great control..

Hey nice to see other people making cars user added image

I like nurbs for the body and I love this method of making tires because it's so exact. I looked on the internet for pirelli p zero tires but I ended up using a photo scanned from a car mag.

The scan is 730kb so I didn't want to upload it here. If you can't find one email me and I'll send it to you.
