good. i went through an 8 month low voltage tech program just out of high school and they BEAT a-code into us for a solid month of the course.

no one ever uses a-code. used to be it was how i could tell if it was an end that i put on in the past...

Option1. like new NT-01 for $650/set. $1200 new, 275/35 and 305/35 used for 1 track day, would not be well suited for daily duty. local fb marketplace

Option 2. Maxxis RC-1 slicks $60/set. 275/35 square track takeoffs, beat, but could be used for appropriate mockup while widebody is being fitted. poor/dangerous daily ability, 5hr drive each way to pickup fb marketplace. im leaning towards this because i really just want them for mockup to make sure the wheels are good to use on the over-fender setup and i dont have to get 18x9.5 fronts (which i may have to)

Option 3. New Achillies ATR2 $300/set. dont really want to go this route. 275/35/18

Option 4. New UHP's $700/set. indy 500's, and the like are around ~150-175 each in 275/35/18

Option 5. the shop thats doing the body install can get tires for me at a deal. but im not sure how much % off and i dont want to shoot myself in the foot because being ill prepared and wind up having to pay $800 for a set of nitto/yoko/toyo/brigestones etc when i can just get the slick takeoffs for 60/set for mockup, then decide about tires, after im positive about what size i need.

Don't be cheap with tires. Buy what's reasonable for the application.

18X11

i believe an 18x18 square setup should be considered.

Other than first earthquake (5.7m) on Thursday, I’ve only noticed 4. 2 very noticeable one (4.6m & 4.1m). All have been less than 10 secs long. I’m pretty sure I’ll notice more... if my car, my wife’s car & neighbor’s exhausts aren’t loud & shake the townhouse every time we fire em up lol
