I dont think theyd spin as much with 3.73’s. How do you figure that you dont need a larger size than stock when you say it ropes the tires off 1st-3rd? I dont get it… And the difference between 3.73’s and 4.10’s will no affect the spinning drastically. ---

I just dont want bigger tires because theyre going to throw off the speedometer and shit like that. With DR’s it doesnt spin as bad but Id rather not drive around on them all the time. Also its kinda hard finding 16" DR’s it seems. Only one set that might fit on ebay now. ---

Also its kinda hard finding 16" DR’s it seems. Only one set that might fit on ebay now. look at the manufacture date on them. im sure they are 5+ years old. and the compound is less than impressive. they are also an H-rated (130mph) tire. treadwear # (which will tell you how soft they are) is likely to be in the 360+ range. a BFG DR is 00, same as the MT, i believe a Nitto NT555R is a 20 treadwear… also, your excuses are disgusting. youre not a car guy at all. you should take up a new hobby, perhaps horticulture? ---

Well since my car doesnt go faster than 120 theyre ok. No idea what the date or anything else is on them, Im too lazy to go out in the driveway. I also lost my parking spot for the car so thats another good reason to ditch this car. ---

You CAN purchase a wider tire and still have the same overall diameter which will keep youre speedo correct. 245/45/17, 275/40/17, and 315/35/17 all have the same O/D within .2" with most tire manufacturers. ---

Theres not much room for wide tires on the car. The DR’s were a bit closer than I wouldve liked them to be. I already had to flip the shocks because they rubbed. Im definately not getting 17’s or another set of street tires since these are almost new. And for the 8,643,467,533 time Im not taking 4 grand for the car. ---

You can ditch the quad shocks, like every other normal fox owner, and put 275’s on no prob ---
