i know you just got them on but let me know how you hook up with that tire/ rim combo.
i want 18's but was thinking it's easier to hook with a beefier tire on a 17 or maybe it doesn't matter

Bellevue, right outside of Omaha. As far as power goes I have about 340-350. They hook alot better than the stock tires, but they can still be blown off in first and second if they are not warmed up. It does not get driven in the rain, so I can not tell about wet traction.
