Well I have established that I have the PI head swap for my 98 4.6L. I am fairly new and looking to improve first with tires My GT is lowered and has 245/45/17 on the 98 gt rims. What should I put on the rear tires? Also what modifications should I make first aftermarket exhaust has already been done.

The 8 inch wheels will hold 275/40/17's but they are a tight fit and your installer will hate you.

Since you already have the headswap and exhaust the next thing would be gears. The car has been modded so you may want to check if this has already been done.

yeah i have 275's on my 17" wheels. my tire guys stuck em on for me!

get yourself a nitrous oxide kit instead of a supercharger! a little bit cheaper and still can be fun lol! remember, you can blow your motor with nitrous or a supercharger..just depends on the user!

4.10 gears and some sticky tires. Nittos DRs would work with what mods you have. I would just save up for something big like a supercharger.
