I spent the last 4 months rigorously cutting, tracking macros, and lifting 6 days a week. My photos aren’t perfect but they’re a good start in my opinion.
Only issue is there is no social proof. Another issue is my body fat is not 12% yet where I will arguably look even better. I am hovering about 15% right now. Let me know what you think. Bio could use some work.

I agree you could always lift more. You have decent progress but I wouldn't say you're as ripped/muscular as you could be. I'm not either yet, but just being direct.
Keep in mind, your gym progress does looks good though. That wasn't a critique, you could just always grow
I thought facial hair looked good, hair seems stylish. Your appearance itself is good in my opinion.
It's also good that you're verified, makes girls more at ease swiping on you.
Your bio may be a bit short. I find the sweet spot is around 2 good sentences and my height, but that's just what gets me the most matches (and I'm a picky swiper) your mileage may vary.
I think the close ups of your face don't do any favors, not because of your face but because men having "selfie" shots is almost always a negative to women.
The car might possibly be fine for your age group, if it is your car, only because it signals that you have a ride. At older ages it looks try hard and and is a negative. Again, your mileage may vary simply because of age but I can't say for certain.
I would incorporate more hobby-related or destination photos. Two reasons:
1) signals you spend time cultivating your life, passions, and skills as a man
2) girl sees some of them and goes "ooh I could see myself doing that with him"
Those are my honest opinions using a combination of what works for me, what my successful friends do, and some TRP legends advice on the subject
Edit: clarified my first point
Edit 2: go for a more natural looking profile, a lot of your photos look posed for instead of "I'm doing something interesting, might as well take a photo of it"

Thanks. I’m not anything special yet because I am definitely not ripped. But you should look at where I started. https://imgur.com/a/KQtOI7A
The car is mine, and I personally really like the photo. I get how it may look try-hardy in the future.
Selfies are obviously also a negative but I feel like that’s where I look best. My main photo has good lighting so I think I will keep it for now.
For future photos, I definitely want to add a photo of me kickboxing since that is my main sport, and one of me playing basketball which is also one of my favourite sports. For other photos, I just need to go out more. Lol.

No problem
You definitely improved since the other photos. Keep it up, looks good
The rest was just my two cents, of course your results may be different
I wish you luck

I’m not getting anything at all lol. 4 likes in 24 hours. I would say it’s my photos but they’re not even that bad imo. Is the competition really that fierce on tinder? I felt like I was above average

Yeah just thought I looked best in the selfies. I actually feel like I have some good muscle but I need a non-douchey photo.

Lol I just started my account up. Guess we’ll wait and see. I don’t have abs, but they’re barely coming in just now.

2 and 3 are good. 1st and last have no context and you just look NICE. Be more naked in at least one pic.
