Tim why such a tall tire? That's gotta be hurting your mph.

Yeh it might be ,I honestly just like the look of it more than anything . But it could use more gear for sure. The 3.91 gears just set up so nice I hate to change them . The 325 tires just look too small in that big wheel well.

Doesn't 325,390, etc mean the width not the height?

Yes but its not that simple...

"The two-digit number after the slash mark in a tire size is the aspect ratio. For example, in a size P215/65 R15 tire, the 65 means that the height is equal to 65% of the tire's width. The bigger the aspect ratio, the bigger the tire's sidewall will be."

That tire is 14" wide and you don't have clearance issues?? Also what tires are you running up front?

TOSTO RACING · 11-26-2015, 06:29 AM

Nope fits perfect, it does shrink down on a 10 inch wheel ,but it's still huge . On the front I run the 28x4.5x17 M&H tires .

Motorboy8769 · 11-26-2015, 07:29 AM

Do you have any issues with abs or the computer in the car from tires that are slightly different in size?
