Its not that bad, we always take a trip out to the westside (which is on the other side of town) with my slicks and skinnies and i once was racing a bike on the freeway and they handled better than i thought on turns, but dont do the hard turns all the time and you will be ok.

I am wondering the same thing. I go to WIU (Western Ill. Univ.) and its about a 275mile drive from me. Would I be ok to do this with 15x10 out back and 15x3.5 in the front. I wouldnt be doing slicks, id probably do a drag radial. Am I going to be ok going 275 miles and how much ride quality and handling is going to be sacraficed? (Sorry for highjacking the thread a lil) Lets get some more feedback please!
Thanks in advance!

Just wondering if you drive all the time on your Bogarts? I have a set of rear Bolted D10's geeting some for the front along with MT Sportsman tires.

I have driven 200miles round trip with skinnies and slicks, had no problems, and yes this is on prostars.
For bogarts, I have heard some horror stories about using them on a daily driver. I heard of them just breaking apart. And bogart tells you DON'T USE AS DAILY DRIVE, they won't withstand the heat they get when daily driven.

i'm going to get some wide rims (draglites i guess) to hold a 28" nitto DR, but i think would look retarded with stock snowflakes on the front.. im considering driving on skinnies, but they kinda scare me.. whats the widest tire you can fit on a 3.5 wheel?

I daily drive my car with skinnies on the front. Haven't driven very far with them yet though, but they have been on the highway, in heavy thunderstorms, and locked up braking for old people who can't drive and still no problems with them!
