just scored some new weld prostars and tires!
I was browsing LS1tech and found me a set of 15x8 damn near new prostars for the back of my car. they should go nicely with the skinnies. 86formula sent me a link to some 275 50 15 M/T DR's to go with them, 300 shipped with only 2 passes on em, basically brand new as well. cant wait till i cut some real 60' times now (thatd consist of 1.6 or better) maybe lift a front wheel? (or at least look cool on godragracing.com or davelmilcarek's site)

true that. you know if you pull a 1.7 60' you can pull the front wheels 10 inches!
