Hey Mob Why don't you go for a 315/30/18? That should tuck well. Might be selling my 315/30/18 Falken 615Ks.

or a 305 Mickey Thompson

Chon - I got those blackbird stripes for you when you want them. Dont know if i will make it to castroville friday but could prob get them to you some other night this week or weekend.
Thanks bro.

Yes Steve Blackbird stripes. Just want to see how they will look on my car.

I know alot of yous guys hate this, but I'm on a stretched tires. I'm running a 11.5 inch wheel now with a 265, My other set of wheels is 12" wide with a 285. When I do run a 13" wheel ill run a 305. I'm on the fence, I need to buy a set of track wheels. Then ill go with a double staggered setup 17x10f and 18x13-14 rear with 325 35 18. need to pick out wheels though.
