taller than the 315s.
315s inflated were about 25.5"
335s deflated were about 25.9"
315s inflated were a little more than an inch smaller than the 335s deflated stacked. i pretty much figure the tires will pick up another 1-2" with air in them

btw mightymouse is cutting 1.35s with 315/35/17 MTs…but with an auto. if i can get to 1.5 id be more than happy.
mind you he is running 8.7s at 160 with a similar powered setup as mine… 402 with T88 vs 408 with S88. his advantage is that he has 6 bolt heads.

it was one second with a lot more power and suspension mods. obv an auto is faster, but its a lot more boring as well

qa1 shocks… sticking with the bilsteins for now… getting a solid drag bar, and adding a two step. i dont foresee it having issue cracking 9s after the initial setup phase

Its a solid rear sway bar…
Not many people run strange shocks…Most people run QA1s for drag racing I think it was pricing thing?
