It seems that the BFGs are best for s197 and the nittos are the worst on DRs The MTs work good on my car but still spin.

Those wheels Im going to have to get

Wait a day or two so we can get a little more info on this....if you click the link on the original post you can catch up on the latest. Me and a couple of others are asking for part numbers... I believe Ron is heading this up and will give an update soon after he talks to Greg at Gregweld to confirm.

The 15 inch wheels are going to stick out on rear might be a problem for lowered cars drag racing. They recomend the 17 inch wheels the rears have a 7 inch BS.
