But your right about the 28 vs 26 tires, JMO I think the 26 would be faster on a stock to mild build. I could see the LT4 power level & higher benefit from a 28" tire. |

I just can't get used to the wheel height difference, just doesn't look good to me.
I'm old so I like same size wheels & will never own a set of black wheels...lol |

You do know it is WAY less expensive to make black wheels vs a beautiful billet CNC polished aluminum wheel. The industry is making a killing off everyone that buys or owns black wheels. Paint & powder coating is super cheap. I'll be dead before I put anything but polished aluminum wheels on any car I own. Okay I'm off my soap box now, carry on. |

The price of the fancy Welds is just ridiculous unless you’re pushing big HP & actually need beadlocks or just have the extra $ to spend.

Also 28" look so much better on these cars any reason why you went in such a narrow setup? 275/40/17 i/o the usual 315/35/17??? I would think the wider 315 would grab better.

My idea is that at anything Sub 600whp on the 6M I’d be hurting my times by running a larger tire and kicking myself out of the target RPM range. Also I absolutely wanted to keep the front/rears matching in size and this is about as perfect as it gets when you use the tire calculator. On the street it hooks pretty well so imagine it on a prepared track. Too bad we’re not closer as I’d love to see some of the 28” tire guys try this set up to see if it changes their ET/MPH for the better. I agree the 28” fills the space up better BUT after having this set up I’m in love with the look keeping the car low to the ground

You ask so I think the tires just look to short. I like them close to the fender well or tucked. Mine tuck when I launch my car and that shows great weight transfer. Hope your hooks good. You might consider lowering it to tighten it up.
(18ss376 you were on that 2 step a long time. They shake and break stuff all the time.)
