this is a good question.. Do you want a skinny for the front though?

For the fronts, im gonna guess the XP's are gonna weigh quite a bit more, since they dont come as 3.5" like the normal prostars. Plus then that means the tire is gonna be heavier as well..

When i was getting drag rims, i wanted the XP's cause of the look, but i wanted a real skinny for the weight reasons, so i went with the pro stars.

I don't plan on front skinnys.

I'm doing 275/50 15 nitto dr's on 8 inch Prostars on the back for some track use but mostly weekend duties.

For front use I'm thinking 5 inch Prostars and not the 3.5 inch for skinnys and hopeing to still save a good bit of weight compared to my regular 16 inch front wheels/tires.

Any info or opinions would be great!!!
