17" as seen in signature picture. I found these and they are a dry weather replacement for the ones I have, sizes are the same since they are Ecsta's also. I think these are what I will go with: Kumho Ecsta XS.

I don't know if I want to go that aggressive. I want a little more siping for rain and a little better wear.

he goes by 'bigger is better455'on transamcountry.com. its been awhile since ive been on there. he was gettin ready to retire that car as he bought it new and before he did he rolled it. he was fine, dont remember what he did with the car.

if you listen to the video you'll notice a 'beeep' at times, thats when the suspension grabs so well that it forces the oil away from the pickup. when oil pressure drops the 'beeep' goes off

That's what I figured! That's cool! Now, when my stuff arrives I figure I will have one of the hottest canyon carvers in the area, when my stuff arrives... I wish Dave would just respond so I could get a small warm fuzzy about this whole thing. I'm not in some major hurry. The lack of response is making me NERVOUS!

I got to thinking about it and if I'm getting all these goodies why not put the hot chit tires on too. I think I'll get the Nitto's after I get my goodies installed. It should be a blast to take up to Pacific Raceway for a track day!
