Yes, Z06. It is my roommates.
They are skinnies. Radials that work and are cheap. Don't care much how they look as long as they help with rotational mass and weight.

All drag cars have thinner tires right? That's a good thing
But you can't tell from the side so your car looks like a NASCAR.

now the test is to see if you can lift them bad boys off the ground,lol

While lifting the tires looks cool, it slows you down a little.
I am sure it will...but probably not on this driveshaft.

I was able to leave at around 3200 RPM's on the Nitto DR's. Sometimes they would hook, other times the car would hop a bit causing spin.
Should be able to leave around 4500-4800 RPM's now. :iceslolan

"Yeaaaaah.. she's my daily.. you know cause she's slow and can handle during the winter" :grinno:
Thats like a major diss towards the Z06 and a total ego boost for the T/A since its a bit quicker.

About one and a half seconds quicker to the 1/4 mile, and about 9-10 MPH faster to the same distance.
I wish it wasn't that quick. My car REALLY needs a diet. :lol:
