dude you are no where near me or koll...

alex you need some DRs on those 11" rears. you will be mid 13s easy if you practice your launches and pull a 1.9 60'.

Actually, at the track I did see a Corvette with chrome ZR1's with a BFG Drag Radial on them in 315/35/17. I know Nitto also has them in that size, but I wouldnt consider a drag radial or any new tire, till the ones I have are done. (315's are pretty expensive)

well it's not like you would want to use DRs as a everyday tire on your car anyway so waht does the life of the current tires matter?

Alex, just get a set of 255 section DRs and stick them on the stock rims. Much better hook, and the 16s are sure to be lighter too :)

Yeah at Big Al's Shop of Pain.

I dont know how they got messed up. The deep dish goes in the front and in the back of the wheel it either said "Front only" or "Rear Only"
