What size tire do you have on the rear of the Viper, do those Nitto's hook okay for the power it's making?

+1 how do the nittos hook? I hear they aren't the greatest, but they look good and the price is right.

Both cars have identical tires and sizes. 285-19 fronts, 345-20 rears. They hook better than stock run-flat crap tires, but not nearly as good as a set of sticky drag radials. I'm pretty decent at controlling spin with the throttle though. The Viper is easier to launch, it has hardly any gearing in the rear. The Z06 is lighter in the ***, it likes to spin the tires more from a stop.

Yes, I'll eventually mod the Z06. Nothing crazy though, I want it to retain stock drivability. No huge cams, loud exhausts, or any nonsense like that. Probably a mild cam, ported heads and intake. Conservative 500-520 rwhp.

I like the stock Spider wheels too, but I like having a different looking vehicle than all the others even more.
