Love the looks. Can't wait to see the improvement.

Are you running TPM's?

2NASSTY · 01-31-2016, 07:19 PM

Very Nice! You will love the Weld set-up on the street and strip.

GODZL1A · 01-31-2016, 08:04 PM

Well I just made it home from PBIR and everything went very good today no problems at all with the new wheel & tire setup the car ran like a top all day I made 11 passes in total and all of them were in the 10's with my best run being a 10.789

I'm not running the TPMS in these wheels i figured when i get to the track and let the air out of the rears that the warning would come on anyway

Awesome!! You said you went 11.0s on the stock 20s with Drag Radials, any changes to the car besides wheels and tires? 3/10ths of a second is a big difference
How are you liking street driving on the skinnies?

Congrats! Solid numbers. Must be making around 600whp?

GODZL1A · 01-31-2016, 08:45 PM

I went 11.0 on 18 inch drag radials and vette wheels I haven't ran the 20's at the track yet the only thing I changed was the wheel & tire setup I'm sure the track prep was way better today also

The skinnies aren't that bad on the street just need to take it a little slower in the turns

I'm at 655 rwhp & 665 rwtq

Is your car a stick or auto?

GODZL1A · 02-02-2016, 05:01 PM

Automatic

Nice

EvilZL1 · 02-05-2016, 10:59 AM

Looks great!

Dutchman427 · 02-09-2016, 07:47 AM

How is it driving with skinnies on the street? I was thinking about switching from the 17x5 to a 17x8 set-up. What are your thoughts?

GODZL1A · 02-09-2016, 10:57 AM

Driving on the street with the 17x5's definitely feels a little different but not bad at all that being said I only drive it with the 17 inch setup to and from the track other then that I use my factory 20's

Personally if I were going to run the weld setup all the time I would keep the 17's on the rear and go with a 20x8 or 20x10 in the front and keep the 17x5's for the track
