if you plan to auto-x, i suggest to get as wide as possible in the front. going with 8.5" in the front w/ 9.5" in back would increase the understeer. then again, if you are a 1320 guy, it doesnt matter

Damn Everybodys on the RUFF bandwagon now....I think the 18 19 combo looks the best with lowered f bodys they even look nicer with a sportline kit ....BB

3 pages of stuff just wanna let you know i dont think they make a drag radial in a 19. so if you plan on getting a tire for it go with a 18. I could be wrong on the 19 inch tire tho. not sure
