Like Ryan mentioned, it doesn't get too cold around here for you to worry much about your Goodyears. I know that there is concern when driving on them in 55 degrees and below, but from time to time, especially in the night time it will drop under 40-35 degrees.

Yeah, the fronts wear out much quicker than the rear, especially consider how hard you drive on the corners.

Fronts ain't nearly as bad as the rears, rears look like slicks lol.

PSA: There's a brand new white '15 Mustang running around in Horizon/El Paso that likes messing with Camaros (he doesn't know how to shift very well lol)

hey guys its been awhile since ive posted here. finally had time set aside to get into my suspension/driveline project and i have gotten to the point of getting all arms replaced and the rear diff pulled. who in the el paso area would be recommended to do the work on switching the gears to 3.91s, swaping to a truetrac, and sizing my jre billet caps to the right size. also i have a new clutch. any recommendations on legit shops that know gear setting and clutch installs would be awesome. thanks guys

I love and appreciate my EP folks. Just a thought.

Nothing wrong with these, just got some other ones that has more coverage for the 10 inch tire. The rpi ones work well with the 9 inch ss wheels

Unfortunately I don't have any leads down here that I would feel comfortable sending you to for the diff setup yet. I'm not sure what time frame you are looking at on the diff, but if you are doing the R&R yourself, I wouldn't mind dropping your pumpkin off on one of my trips up through Abq.
