And here's another option:

I did not see those parts used for rims before, so I say they are AWESOME! especially the second one!

[Jim]

Sweet!

I really love these designs. Very original.

I would really like to have more rim options and these look awesome, especially the first one.

Working on a white 8070, so maybe I will borrow your design

So, I will copy paste:

Cool idea. Have you considered using the 8653 and 8145 wheel covers?

Aren't those the same wheels?

[D3K]

That's great! Way to think outside the box!

[Detzit]

I don't have either. Unfortunately. It would look great.

I take the opportunity to show you my solution for the 8070 back:

[jantjeuh]

Eh, true. I didn't mean the rims, I meant the wheel covers :)

[Zerobricks]

These would be awesome in chrome!

[unimog123]

Yeah, nice job! And I love the roof and how it cuts off like that. Do you think you can make a topic on your MOD of 8070?

[Rishab N]

Wow thats a great idea!

I think I'll try using it in the future

Thanks for the feedback.

And thanks Jim for the help.

Sorry for not returning sooner.

I wanted to build the 8070 from parts but was missing some.

So the mods started by the need to find alternatives (wheel arches, some panels in black, etc.)

The back is really the only thing I think needs working on the official 8070.

Here are some details.
