Last picture i have of my car before I sent it off for a new motor!



18x9.5 275/35/18's up front & 18x10.5 315/30/18's in the rear. In the picture it was set up on 1.5" Hypercoil Springs. But now sits up front with a tubular k-member and QA1 coil-overs dropped 2" up front. I didn't have any issues with it on springs! I didn't even have to do the BFH mod.

Very good to know, thanks for the input! Your car sounds exactly like what I want to do except with less of a converter(it'll take a little mora work to reach mid 12's but oh well). I'm even looking at the KDW's, although you probably have the really sick ones with the crazy tread pattern I keep seeing...forgt the model. The ones I want have more of a traditional radial pattern that looks like it'd even be suitable for ran/snow to an extent, they're even W rated.


And Ar0ck, SWEET *** CAR man!!! Nice to see some more Jersey boys!
