Default Anyone ID this Hummer for me?

I'm new to the forum, and will likely be purchasing my best friends 96 Hummer. I found this photo and all I can find out was that it was taken by B&B Kristinsson photographers. With a name like that, I can only assume it is a European photo. I was wondering if it had been featured in any of the 4X4 magazines or if anyone could tell what kind of lift it had, and what size wheels and tires it has on it?

Thanks,
Marty

Guy in Florida builds a lot of lifted H1s like that one. Can't remember his name. He rolled a lifted H1 open top on Tipover in Moab a few years back.

Looks like this one from Iceland before he put on the flares.

Thanks, that's the one. Wow 49" tall tires, I don't care what they say about the size of his *****, that Hummer is awesome.

With these tires, I assume you cannot use any run-flat inserts in them? And no variable air pressure system too?

The run flats only fit either 16.5 or 17" tires. I know H1 owners running 42" tires with the stock CTIS system. Not sure what pressure those tires run but the CTIS pump is pretty good. Obviously airing back up from 12-15 psi would take awhile.

Thanks for the information, as 42" was the size I had in mind of eventually putting on the thing, I would also need to know if a 4" lift kit would be sufficient for those tires. I don't think I would want it any higher.

two more things:

where is the edit function on here, I see no where to edit a post?

and the other thing about the Hummer pictured above.....where did he get that raised top/roof section?
