    Car Shipping???

    Alright thanks for the advice. Thats what im scared of, i dont want the car being moved on and off the trailer and getting damaged. I was thinking that maybe i could tell them that it cant be driven far or at all, that way they dont move it or take it out for a joyride.

    ordering rims

    back spacing

    with a 15x8 rim i would go with a 3.5" backspace, leaves you with plently of room for 275's, Im running a weld prostar 15x8 with 3.5"bs and a mickey thompson 28x11.5 fits perfect.

    Mickey thompson ET streets?

    Re: et streets I know they are not a radial tire but they are DOT, I think people are getting them confused with the now impossible to get Mickey thompson drag radials. anyways i mounted them up and they hook really good, cant wait to try them out at the track.
