18 rims? reminds me of a scene from white men can’t jump. its not a car show, you don’t have to look good to win.  
I’d let you borrow my ETdrags but you need to do some work for them to clear, if you want you guys can borrow them. they grow to 29" so a 28 DR would be better but get some sidewall with a smaller rim. Don’t let the honda win again. ☹

edit I do have my 275 M&H DR there 28 and just need the center the rear with LCA to run them. On 16 stock Z28 rims will bolt right on. I get 1.5s on them, better traction then the wider tires on big rims fro sho.

The Honda only does 60MPH rolls, and when they raced I think the temp’s were high 30’s… so warmer weather, new tires at Supra roll speeds, I’m thinking the Firehawk may show its true power.

some people like not having shitty looking wheels on their car either. what you like might not necessarily be what chuck likes, and vice versa.

i’d almost break my own rule and race the honda from a 60 roll, but i think i don’t even care about it anymore. i’d rather wake up breathing tomorrow 🙂

Breaking is all apart of the game, if you can’t handle downtime baby the car. Would you rather break your car that’s fixable or like turbo ls1 said cut your life.

im far from a hater, personally i love turbo s2k’s… just been around the game and seen enough setups to know that a 35r based turbo will not do 900hp… hell most power ive seen from a 35r was a 3567r and it put down 730 which is still some serious power

any pics of the car or details on it?
