        yeah you or anyone with a third gen running aftermarket rims for the strip, just something cheap would be nice, or you could give me all the wheel specs i could use on my car like backspacing and offset and all that shit cuz i don't understand it much. but yeah this car won't be driven in the wet or the rain, dry weather only.

          I run just a stock 8in GTA wheel with a 255 BFG DR and have no problems. As far as aftermarket wheels go I think the biggest you can run is a 10in tire with a 5in BS. with this you will be able to run the wider tires for more traction.

            Like Justin said, I'd get a cheaper set of like weld wheels. I'm pretty sure that you'll want to run a 15x10 rim with 5.5 BS.

                          Yeah the last pair of Nittos I had hooked just about as good as my street tires, but they would work great for DD.

                            you have a 383. There would be a problem if that thing was hooking as is. i wouldnt be surprised if you can burn through second too.

                                UMMM i have experience with nittos. They run more narrow compared to another tire. measure sometime. They hook ok but they arent soft enough thats why they last so long. there is upside and downside to them.
