The little bit more of a softer sidewall on the DR's is a little more forgiving for wheel hop. Plus you'll see pretty decent mileage out of the DR's. Anywhere from 8-10K miles.

What about 555's all around, and then get a set of 10.5" spare wheels/tires with 315's for the rear? For the fun sake factor?

He had them on his 1986 5L Coupe (quick car)!!! He sold it 2 years ago to get the 2006 Mustang V6 Pony Package car he has now (5 speed)...we're looking now to doing a few things to it - including a possible Turbo!

I'm going to try to make the Sat. June 5th day!!! ...I have a good friend in Reading, PA that I can stay with...YOU??
