Sticky Tires

I just got a very good deal on a set of 10th AE rims for my 90 GXL . The rims came with 225/50R16 A008RSII all around. I didn't find any rubbings in the front or back. I found that the acceleration was slower, the top speed was slower, braking is alittle worse and the clutch needs to work at it limits. However, I can corner at insanely high speeds now!

Damn I hate mods, now I need to work on the exhaust to get more power to spin the rear tires.

This is going to be a never ending circle

Heavy wheels = slower acceleration. You just learned something we have been saying on here time and time again.
