Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...

They do make the car look small lol, but in this case its more about the go than the show. They are light as hell, and with these bias-ply (wrinkle wall) tires I should definately get out of the hole hard and hopefully save some driveline parts in the process ;)

There are better options for tires and wheels, but meh, if it works, it works I guess. Got spare transfercases and axles?

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

that looks badass! love how you kept the stickers on the tires, haha.

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

hmm...
So are you running something larger than a gt42R or what?
Good luck at the track.

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

I think you need a trans am chicken sticker on the hood and a mullet j/k I like the tires. But if your car was black the rims would look better? But what look good is running a good ¼ the most.

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

My thoughts too. It's gonna hook so good that tranny parts may separate themselves from the rest of the car.

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

The car is stripped pretty good so that will help a lot. If it was full weight it would not even make one pass with that tire/wheel combo. Better set the two step to about 6k.

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

He already had something larger than my GT42R last year.

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

Yikes man, thats hardcore. Are you going to street those tires?

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

Didn't know that.
Good luck Chris.

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

I wouldn't necessarily say I am street driving it lol, but you will see me down at uni very soon :)

As far as the spare drive train parts go, have you seen my other post in which I am parting a 2G AWD except for the drivetrain ;)

I actually chose these tires to try to save the drivetrain over a set of Drag Radials. I spoke with Marco a few times, as he is the only one I could think of running 4 slicks besides shep, and he believes that the wrinkle effect actually acts as a cushion as they give a little on the launch. That and utilizing the E brake to preload the drivetrain is how I hope to hold it together... For a few passes at least ;)

And it eats little children...

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

Chris- We should run at the track. I'll be on the road in a few weeks as well.

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

Sounds like a plan, depending on which track we head to I may only get one run ;)

tsk tsk tsk...no cage yet?

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

wait, wait, unless you are literally talking about running with your legs, that means you're getting the stealth back together?

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

Yeah I've talked about it on a few threads on here...don't take Chris's thread off topic.

Sorry Chris :).

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

GO MAKE SOME POWA!


The rims don't look that bad, not my first choice though. It could look worse, that's for sure.

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

Not yet, I have this problem where I slack off all winter and as soon as spring hits and cars start coming out I rush to get everything done lol.

Re: Daddy's got a new pair of shoes...
 

You mean you have me and kyle rush ;) It was not a fun task getting those rims on the car!! I should have it running soon for Chris:)
