get some old 15" v6 wheels, mount up some 235/60/15 MT ET street radial on there and you will hook and not have a gigantic tire bringing you down
I borrowed some wheels from a friend, the tires were too big for my setup.. I knew this an tried it anyway. It helped slightly over street tires, but I went faster on a previous date on street tires. Bogged the car down too much off the line.

Point is, tire size does matter. and 15x10s might not help you, especially with 3.73s

God...this forum is depressing as ****.
Glad I grew up and bought a better car so I don't have to associate with all the losers here.
Also:
EDIT: Got to thinking about how depressing this thread is and wanted to clarify that my post was sarcastic in nature, I still own my '99, and I don't think everyone here is a loser. I didn't want an Internet-Suicide on my conscience.

What prompts people to come on a public forum and discuss that openly is BEYOND me.
It went from funny, to "that really sucks for you" to that awkward "stop telling me so much" kind of thing.
And the fact he seems proud of it makes it funny again.
Maybe that's why he bought a GT500? Make him seem like a man again to his wife LOL
