Skinnies I want to take my 2002 SS and run it at the Monster Mile in Maxton NC. Been there several times as a spectator. Some of you might know of it. They have a web sight. Check out Land Speed Racing. ECTA(East Coast Timing Association) I have a set of ET Gassers 15" skinnies I want to run on front to cut down on wind resistance. Anybody had problems with the brake system with smaller tires on the front. I don't want to hit the traps at 180 and have the brakes not hooked!

you will need spacers to run 15" skinnies on an LS1 car...for the answer tho.
