  • Good shop or site to order wheels and tires

    I've decided on the TT2 rims. I wouldn't mind ordering them from someplace close to Grand Rapids, Caledonia, or Middleville. If anyone knows of a good site I would think about it too. I also need a good dealer for Nitto performance tires.



    Still deciding on rear combo. Would 18-10 TT2 rims look good out back? Considering 17-11. Let me know what you think

    I would think 18 x 10 out back would look great as long as they would fit with the right offset to keep them tucked inside the wheelwell

        17X11 with 315 Nittos looks so wicked.

          If I go with the 11 inch rims and wrap them in 315 nitto drag radials will I have to worry about rolling the fender? Smashing in the inner fender well? or cutting off the bump stops?

          Anyplace else other than Summit? I was thinking I may get them a bit cheaper someplace else?

            Yeah you have to remove the bumpstops and beat the inner wall I believe but then again Matt had to do that with 10.5s so I dunno how easy 10s would fit either.

                Well I shouldnt be considering DR anyway because I have a 10 bolt that is probably on its last legs. The Nitto 315's from what I'm told are actually a bit more narrow than most 315 tires. Anything else and I would for sure have to roll the fenders and smash in the inside. Not something I really want to do, unless it's done professionally. From what I've gathered on fbody.com some people may have to cut the bump stops while other people don't? It's only a problem when jacking up the car on a lift that doesn't keep the axle loaded. As far as rolling the fender goes I was told that some people have to while others don't? I've even been told about having to purchase an adjustable panhard bar to reallign the body over the wheels? Sound's like alot of work. To tell you the truth it probably will only make my car slower in acceleration on the street anyway. If I dump the clutch on the street I may have a small problem with a brocken rear? Anyone know for sure of the mods needed?

                Micky drags can't be driven on the streen every day like I attend
