Why such a small tire? If you plan making 300+ whp, I would think you would be having some traction issues with only 215s. I'm too lazy to look. Do they come in an 8.5"? If so, a 245 would fit nicely.

BBS wheels are hot as all hell. But then again, I'm partial to the more european styling.

Yeah, you are right 215 is not enough

Wider would be better!
