- Sat Apr 14, 2012 3:16 am #301782 just picked up a brand new set of big nasty 24.5 x 8.5 x 13 MH's mounted on a brand new set of Exospeed 13's for cheap tonight :woot: :woot:


probably gonna have to lift the front end up just a little and might have to get a set of spacers (for some reason i think only EK's need the spacers..)

interested to see what it will do with these.. it's gonna take my 4th gear out to 106mph instead of the 99 :lol:

- Sat Apr 14, 2012 5:30 am #301791 test fit was not as bad as i thought, but still gonna need to come up just a little bit. gonna throw some spacers on too for a little more clearance.


fitment looks cool and is seriously hellafunctional :lol: .. but i'd like to keep my bumper and fenders on the car when i stomp on the brakes. :lol:


a couple extra shitty cell pics..

- Mon Apr 16, 2012 12:55 am #301976 are you going to run skinnys in the back?? also you might want to raise it a little more than an inch so you will have more room for the tire ballooning.

got talked into going to the track friday night. had a nice gusty head wind and only got in two passes before it started to rain. went a 12.25 @ 113 with the tires squeeling in 1st and 2nd. I'm hoping with less tire pressure and better conditions it should have no problem running consistent high 11's. not sure if i like the longer gears with these taller tires yet, wanna see what it will do with better conditions.

first pass with 20psi in the slicks which got me no where.. http://youtu.be/WiifrBLhEGY

lowered them to 15psi and did a little better.. http://youtu.be/nbfbt41PnYg
