Advice from a good freind of mine Danny vahn, topoutlaw racer for many years, from what he told me my front end is too heavy for goodyears, He Said they are all abou the same till you start runnnng 160+ in the quater.

From what I understand, the Moroso skinnies are the best when it comes to weight and rolling resistance... that's a good choice, dude!

Those are the same skinnies I plan on buying once I have enough money...
