thx,

the nitto's imo are much better than bfg's,

i had a set of bfg's once for about 1 month, drove from cincy, to the nmra race in atlanta and home and they were done,

i've ran 3 or 4 sets of nitto's on cars and my lightning and always got about 15k out of them, they are actually really good in the rain too

Is your car lowered at all? What did you have to do to make the 275s fit in the rear? I want to run the same, but I'm afraid of rubbing because my car is lowered.

I'm not sure if Beefcake posts on here much anymore but he doesnt own that car anymore, he moved on to a 450+HP '03 Cobra that he just sold so he can put money down on the new GT500. But to answer your question, i'm pretty sure it was lowered but i don't know what springs he used.

i had put an eibach drag kit on the car, however in those pics, there wasn't anything on the car that i put on, but it's possible the previous owner had,

but when i put the eibach drag kit on, everything looked stock to me

my car is lowered and I have 275s on the rear. That is a misconception, they dont rub.Ive had them on there for 4 sets of tires now. And IMO nittos are good drag radials. Mine hook like a mother f----r, and they wear better than the other companies product.
