Gosh, having that little rubber up front for street driving would scare me. Easy to lock em up even with the ABS.

Re: Greater handling with this!!!

I ditched the ABS and the TCS.
Won't be on the street with these though.

Street Driving????



What size wheels and tires have ya got now Mr. Lous? My Chevy II has 26 or 27 x 7.50s on the front. And they are the Draglite wheels instead of Pro Stars. And I dont know the rear spacing, lol.

Re: Greater handling with this!!!

The rear wheels are 15"x10". BS is 7.5". Pretty tight fit, and work was needed to fit them.
Tires are radials. M/T ET radials. 275/50/15. They are as wide as my Nitto 315/35/17 DR's when set side-by-side.

I also have a set of soft rear springs coming to help with transfer.

Re: Greater handling with this!!!

Now my back wheels are 15x14s. I'd assume there's 8 out and 6 in, but I dont know.

I dont know about soft shocks. We've always had better luck with firmer rear shocks setups.
