> yeah brian, mickeys were the wrong choice. the will wear out for just driving around. i had em…and will never buy em again. i have heard that the new M and H DR was just redesigned, so i might try those in the future. id get the nitto 555r if i were you. they actually hook pretty well with a turbo powerband

Least I bought them used for cheap with the rims. Going to look into the 555r for them. Need to figure something out that will allow me to drive around on them at night for pulls etc.

ok i need some opinions… im about to buy a new set of wheels here, i have my stockers that will be my go to street set up. then these will see a bit of street use but mostly just driven to the track. what do you guys think about a 17x 4.5 up front and a 15x10 with a 28x10.5 stiffwall et drag in the back? it is either that or i get a set of enkei rpf1’s 17x9 and 17x10 and run a 28in tall DR in the rear. i dunno. what do you guys think?
