yeah, problem is my rims arent wide enough for some nice juicy tires, but I like them and they only come in one size. soon as i find a good deal on some wider ones, the 225s will go in the trash and we'll see if some 275s will fit in the fenders....
then again, a 42r would look nice in my engine bay, a set of coilovers would look nice in my wheelwells, and a bumper that has all its parts wouldnt hurt, so we'll see where the money ends up first..

I'd put the money into rims and tires first. They will at least help keep you on the road. You throw a 42r on there and your traction problem will only get worse. Your running the AF61R on the 20b right now right? What kind of power does it produce on the 20b? What boost levels are you running, hows the response?

I am running the af61r, but I have not dyno'd on this setup. I hope to soon, but until then, butt dyno estimate is high 400s. I'm running 9psi street, 13psi race right now on a dual stage boost controller. This is on the stock block with the nasty restrictive exhaust ports, but im seeing full boost around 3k-3500 rpm. I may invest in a set of water seals and a basic rebuild kit just so I can get those damn sleeves out of there...probably depends what sort of weather we have here this winter/spring.

well, i just got done with an ebay spree...bought a set of knight sports coilovers and some 17x8 front, 17x9 rear wheels.
hoping to fit 235/45 front and 275/40 rear. both wheels have +35 offsets. I shouldnt have any clearance problems with that setup right?
