DD baby, and we are gonna get snow next month. I think money would be better spent on maintenance, keeping this thing together instead of making it faster. If I end up getting another car as a beater then I can def see myself going for that 600 wheel mark.

I can only find 17" radials in 28" tall. Thats a huge dif from the 31s I have on it now. I wonder if you ran into the same problem or if you went down to a 15 inch wheel?

Smaller tires are faster...I would use 26" tires except I would run out of gear on the big end. I currently use 28" radials, probably going to find some 28" slicks to use.
