Just a quick question fellas. When you guys do those MassivE Pulls on ur cars do you cut the lip off the quarter just to make it easyer when it getting pulled or does that remain ???

I'm gonna try and fit 305 on my s14 with a really good pull I don't wanna do over quarters.

Thanks: C. Angel

you dont need to cut the lip,you just need to seperate the inner and outer qrt panels and remove the welds.heat it up good with a uv lamp for baking paint as this will evenly heat the whole qtr and roll the shit out of it.should come out like butta if you take your time...

No rub in the rear at all, a little bit on the front, but so far no signs of it on the tire. In this angle it looks a little tucked, but in others, like from above the wheel, it looks like its right in line with the fender.

and I'll be the first one to admit that I dont have any where near the need in terms of power for 305's. I just love grip!

ZenkiCam · 04-23-2010, 04:35 AM

Edit: nvm.

ka-titties · 05-01-2010, 09:40 PM

damn, looks great.

gsracer · 05-01-2010, 10:15 PM

you could definitly fit some 315s in the rear on that setup... looks nice!!

spent27 · 05-11-2010, 11:10 AM

I'm running SM in SCCA and at my weight, I can run up to 275s. I'm looking at the FN01R-C from discount tire, 17x9 +20. Now I'm not going to be running 'slammed to the floor', so could I get away with 275s all around? I want all the same tires so I can buy 5 and have an extra wheel. Nitto NT-01s come in both 255/40 and 275/40. Input?

cdlong · 05-13-2010, 06:47 PM

who gives a shit, LSx 240s are hardly rare at this point. if he's going to BS about something, you'd think it would be cool.

now about "needing" 315s, that's up for debate, but not something to call BS on.

we're talking autoX, right? 275s are pretty wide for 9"s. what power and weight are you running? going wider isn't always the right answer in autoX since you can't really get the tires up to temp. lower weight and quicker heating are sometimes a benefit. 275/40s are taller than stock by a bit also. i'd go with the 255s or 17x10s.

I know a guy with a bolt-ons 03 cobra (450hp) running 275 NT01's for auto-x and said they're one of the best tires he's used. Obviously thats on a 3200lb car though. So 255's would work well for you I'd think.

I'd also suggest getting a 9.5"-10" wheel if you're going to run a 275.

I have 255-40-17 NT05's on my car and love love love them.

aznevoviii · 05-15-2010, 07:32 PM

u are an ASS!!!! LOL
315 in the rear proof pictures

gsracer · 05-15-2010, 07:36 PM

better..

lol

Tearlessj · 05-16-2010, 01:00 AM

Probably get more traction with a better tire and less width. You could always get some sticky 315's.

s142jzkillav10 · 05-16-2010, 06:33 AM

Ok I take back my flag. I see why I spin the F out of the tires You should get a DR or something that will provide better grip. Btw what if the offset of those wheels and any strut issue ??

Car looks good broski

atutt · 05-16-2010, 10:33 AM

How wide and what kind of rims are the rears on that 31`5/35/17?
I'm guessing they are some kind of mustang replica?

(puts on asbestos suit :P)

blksylv · 05-16-2010, 12:40 PM

probably mustang reps, 17X10.5 +27 i assume?
