Good jon on running 10's. So how's it feel to totally reinvent the wheel when a big turbo, built head Sr20 w/ cams and stock 240 rear end w/ LSD and slicks could run bou the same
1) Domestically produced wheels have always been measured in backspacing (and it was probably the standard worldwide until *recently*). Race tires and truck tires have always been measured in inches, not section width and profile.

2) the small block chevy was around well before the SR20, so technically it was Nissan doing the reinventing

3) why am I bothering with someone who is already pinked?
