haha but cmon now! you know you wanna roll around with fatty meats in the rear like the big boys / wanna be big boys (like myself) with 295's /315's/335's[8D]

shoot, if i was getting rims i wouldn't settle for anything less than big since im sure later down the road you dont wanna go "damn i should've bought bigger rear's and just man up to spend that extra 40$ per tire for rears"

I got 25k miles out of my gt in 1 year and there was still 40% tread left on the rears. This is with soloII and 2 autox events.

Only reason I had to replace was I lowered the car too much and the rear fender cut the hell out of the rear tires going into a turn during an event.

fronts are about 50% of what my new tires are, I got a set of 2 rears and 2 fronts when I replaced my tires, I use the 2 front tires as a full size spare.

God I feel like I'm always going in circles... I had 18x9 and 18x10 wheels before but sold them and now I want them again LOL!
I should sell my longtubes and o/r midpipe because personally, I love the way my car sounds as it sits.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... interesting [8D]
The only thing is... I sold the wheels and used that money to buy headers and now I want to sell the headers/midpipe and use that money to buy wheels... again [sm=loser.gif]
