Few more pictures. As for how they hook... . I launched at 3700-4000rpm and didn't even spin! It was on a decent street, but still. I would definitely recommend these tires. Not sure on the wet traction. I won't take it far when it's raining. It is suppose to rain here this weekend, so I may take it out and see how it does.






Sit fairly flush with the fender

Would you say they feel like a Nitto DR or a MT DR?

I couldn't tell you. This is the only drag radial i've ran. They hook, that's for sure.

Doesn't look good to me. The offset on the wheels is wrong, so the wheels stick out the sides of the car.

No they don't. Just the rear where the fender bends in. It sits flush\slightly inside on the top of the fender.

They are probably 11 inch wheels with 315's of course they are going to stick out...

want me to type it again?

It doesn't look good, the wheel looks to be sticking outside the car. Even if it is flush it doesn't look like it is, it looks goofey to me.

That's fine if you don't like it. I just said it sits flush from the top of the fender.

I'm not hating but it does appear that the offset on those wheels is incorrect.

I know what you mean. But like I said, they do sit flush. In the pics, they appear to be like 2inches out of the fender. But, they are not. Look at the last pic I posted.
