No, because if a kaboom does happen I am screwed badly. Even though the odds are it won't happen or it won't happen in the first year, I still can't take that chance. Thanks anyone though, and good luck on selling the kit.

Got a new plan for next yr(February/March-I like planning ahead don't laugh at me [:'(])if you guys think it will work out fine. I know you say traction is impossible to find with 4.30's, so this is what I was thinking to correct that:
-4.30 gears installed ($400)
-17X10.5 Blackbullitts for the rear w/315/35/17Nitto DR or Eagle F1 DR and 17X8 Bullits for thefront with stock tires still ($1000)
-Dyno tune-$200-$250
-Roy intake Spacer-$100
-Aluminum Driveshaft-$260

Do you think traction would be great with Drag Radial315's and the 4.30's oris that still tire burning potential? I wouldlove that plan b/c first and second gear would give me **** your pants hooking potential (315's and 4.30's [sm=yikesomg.gif]).Whatdo you guys thinkof that, b/c if 4.30's won't hook on 315 DR's, I'll just have to live w/4.10's .Please give me lots of input here, I am at a crossroads.

well, the problem i see is that the bullits are a very heavy rim, that'll hurt traction, but i think the 315's will offest that, personally if i was wanting traction Charles the guy i ask about stuff down here said the nitto's are better for street, and not as sticky on the strack, and the eagle F1 is good all around

Yeah, I know that bullitts aren't light, but a 10.5" wide rim that's only 17" tall is damn good. So would you say Eagles are better than nittos?
