Just curious as to why you didn't go with the ET street radials? I almost bought the BFG's but heard the ET's would grip better and last longer. Been running them for two years.

i had a spare pair of 16" rims out in a shed, a member on the board was selling a brand new set for 250, so it worked out just fine

i would say you might need a tune too.. but shooting the flame is still bad ***
