Not nearly as much as one. Might think. I have less in the rear end then a 8.8 conversion

My DFI and the Racepak IQ3 dash? Less then a 24x conversion.

I gave up on radials. To rich for my blood buying a new set every 25 passes.

Those are 29.5x14.5s on 12s. I already trimmed the front. Back needs a little more. That is a s far as i could suck them in and not hit the LCAs
