I felt like i have to complete this

Yes. Your renders have improved so much. Great presentation too

I'm so glad to hear that from both of you. It means all the effort is worthwhile. I'll keep trying to improve that's for sure.

I keep looking at this and the tires really bug me off. Anyone got a nice tip/tutorial of tire texturing ? Specially where the tire gets dirty. I tried to recreate it with the material graph and opacity maps but i'm not quite sattisfied.

I seem to recall John Seymour (Despot) or Tim Feher breaking this down in the past, but can't find the topic. I would start with getting a subtle tire texture and then begin applying some labels and texture maps.

Hey Josh, i'll dig in the forum a little to see what i can find. I can manage to apply the bumps in the side of the wheel (i've done that in previous renders). My problem comes when i try to simulate that dirt line. Reference here: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/fe/c0/81/fec081604c258a501ca661c8776e9e50.jpg

Thank you btw !
