I think 225’s would provide a little more grip without messing with the handling or fitment issues. I know some guys run very wide wheels/tires, and it looks awesome and is probably great on track. I just want to enhance the stock car a little. Grippier tires make a pretty big difference, you will be happy. [emoji106][emoji16]

Yeah same as me. Love the look of meaty tires and I thought about it. I like the price, weight, availability etc. of the 225s so I'll go with that to start off with. Plus, since it's a bit of a taller tire, it'll cover up that wheel gap too. I think I'm going with the Indy 500s since I've heard great things about them. I'll be switching it up, but that's the plan for now. The car feels great in turns and when braking as it is so I'm excited for better quality tires

Yes impressive indeed. One of things I love about it. Like everyone says, you can rip it hard without getting into too much trouble
