Wow your stats are amazing. Did you just use a GTO procharger kit and fab up some new brackets? How hard was the install of the Pro? I know a guy with a 6.0L GTO with Long tubes, catback, procharger and a tune making 550rwhp. Everyone with that setup with maggies are running 430-450rwhp. I really want to go Procharger

Yep, the guys at EPP did his build, madman did the rear. This was before EPP closed its install shop portion. They no longer offer the CTS-V procharger kit if i recall correctly.

Got the used 305 toyo's Friday.....I must say they look awfully wide & I had real doubts about them fitting.
The V has the clutch slave out right now & is gonna be fixed next week, But anyway I took the rears off yesterday & took them to discount tire. Had the 305's put on ...........They do fit, I still have about 1/2" clearance at the inner fender frame area, Which is the closest point. Only problem is with the offset I have they are about 3/4" outside the fender, Which means if I change the hre's offset to tuck them under the fender there gonna hit
Have to get the camera charged & get some pics of them today

I love discount tire! I got a pair of used (tires driven from show room floor to discount tire) continental 255/35/ZR18s for $120.00 mounted... I ALWAYS ask them if they have dealership used tires when I call them! I need to go head and pic up another pair here pretty soon...

I'm still patiently waiting to see pictures of the 305's in there ... hope they fit!!!
And discount tire sells "used" tires?? Had no idea! They must keep that on the DL.

[QUOTE=skydiver;13717514]Like it says...... My 295/35/18 BFG drag radials are showing belts and I need to get something that wears just a little better on the rear,Since I'm only getting about 1800 miles out of the drag radials. So I bought a set of used Toyo R888 305/35/18 & I'm gonna see how they fit or what I need to do to make them fit.
Have the Map offset trailing arms & 10" hre wheels, Also have remote adjustable air bags in the rear with my KW shocks to aid in rubbing the top.
Just have to see if & where they hit & if I can make them work....[/Q;
let me know if the toyo's fit,, cause thats what i have...my rims were widened to 10 3/8th's and i should have gone 10" cause i got rubbing issues. everywhere ...i even put 9mm spacers on and the 315, NOT 305's......my stock silver rims were widened... Now i need to get them redone to 9 7/8"..i only read the op.....got to get some sleep.... my pics of the 315's can be found on the CAD Forum....and the 315's with MAP's trl. arms and FG2's don't even come close to fitting......
