A friend of mine is running those on a 2/4. I have a 4/6 and yes you could fit them with the right wheel backspacing. I'm currently running 275/45/20 on my drop and had to roll my rear wheel lips because they rubbed. I gave up on the 20in Dr's and went with 315/45/16 MT's for the fun times. 27.2 tall and hook like glue.

See the Memphis street racing thread. The pewter truck is on the nittos (he didn't heat the well) and spins, I'm the black truck hooking like glue. The nittos are good and hook pretty well when heated but still not as good as the MT's.

That is alot of money and tire. what is you setup???? I have to think that there is a better wear rated, cheaper, better riding tire out there. unless you are making some serious power

I can get a good deal on them, besides I think it'll look good and most of all would

hook better than the ones i got right now, but as for as other 20's radial drag havent

seen any other ones around.

i would imagine the side walls are rock hard for rim protection, so they wouldnt give and hook well, someone explain
