If you decided to sell them put me first in line (i've kept track of how often you change your setup so I thought I would throw that out there lol )

No I drive it on the street too. They are M&H Radial tires. I went with 17s because 15" Alumastars don't clear stock brakes.

Yep. I wouldn't say more so than Bogarts, I'd say they're probably both on the same level. But The 17" front Alumastars are only for track use. For the street, I have 15x3.5 Weldstars.

That looks sweet too.
Its official though, you need to drive your car more, you haven't even worn the surface rust off the brakes between the 2 pics of the diff sets of wheels.

<-----------cant talk I've been on jackstands a month now since selling my TT2s and waiting on the Bogarts.

I would love to drive it. It's been sitting for 9 months collecting parts. I finally got it all together Thursday, fired it up, and it wouldn't move. My rebuilt TH350 is obviously not rebuilt.
