Actually, 305s are a little more than 3/4 of an inch wider than 285s.

So what you're saying is that I'm going to lose the bet with my friend that says the next Camaro and Mustangs come with MT DR's from the factory? The key there is compromise. GM/Ford/whoever knows they can't please everyone without having an option sheet 34 pages long, so precisely as you've suggested, they compromise. Too bad you have a mullet dragoneye, otherwise we could be special internet buddies. |

The ZL1 owner who dials up the boost or puts the hose to his car is going to have a puckered rear end because while GM gave him all kinds of neat coolers for track days, they gave him an engine with a stout forged crank....but sadly, powdered metal internals. |
