Default What's it gonna take to make me hook?

Ok guys my mods are in my sig... But I'm gettin my 4k stall today and need tire/suspension suggestions..

I have the 16x8 rims and need to know the best tire for the street with this application... Any tire street/DR whatever it'll take just lemme know!

Any suspension parts that are rarely cheap suggest those to and i'll see what's out there for my budget.

Thx again LS1TECH!!!!!

Well the usual is Lower Control Arms and a Torque Arm to start with. Well, since you say STREET tires, look at Mickey Thompson ET Street slicks, or radials. If you need to drive them much on the street you are pretty much stuck with Nitto 555Rs since the MT radials will not last very long.

Yea my car is gonna be pretty much street... But it does see the track here and there, just not a lot cuz my **** is slow I think, I believe it's pointless for my mods... Cuz really I look like a snail goin down the 1/4 LOL!

But I'm needn't tires... And size info. I believe iroc suspension parts swap out so I could rob someonea suspension in a sense... Lol

255 MT DR on stock 16in rims. A friend of mine use to dead hook his old MS3/ETP combo on bone stock suspension with an SS4000 and MT DR's to 1.6x 60's with the swaybar still attached.

Yes, since you are an auto the 255 60 16 Mickey Thompson ET Drag Radials will work well. Be warned though, you will not get much street life out of them.
