I doubt it will be street legal..... Polycarbonate Windows, or a mesh screen...... Front Brakes only...... sounds like its track only....

I doubt if it only has front brakes only, it said "drag-race only front brake assembly". You still get a window you can get a mesh screen to go with it though...

IMHO @ double the first drag pack it should be some type of street-able. I guess we will have see they haven't said anything about about a vin yet so....

does hoosier make daily street tires?

Yup

Ya but not in my size...

I consider my self a tire god, what are you looking for out of the tires? do you drive this car in the winter? what do you want most Dry grip wet grip? about how long do you want them to last?

I currently have nitro nt05 on now.I don't use them in the winter .so yes summer tires.I want dry grip mostly but control on wet roads I have 20x8.5 in front and 20x10 in rear...and my cars lowered

that doesn't help Give me the number off the side of your tires front and rear

example 225/50R16 92S unless you know your profile

275/40/20 rear and 255/45/20 front.they look weird sometimes cause of the tire height differnce.the Guy at tire store said they had to do it that way ...due to brand and available sizes

Ok I've been looking and i have narrowed down to two tires. I do have a connect i e-mailed and waiting to here back from but theses are my preliminary candidates

Now imma be honest i was unable to find the same sizes as you have now in the same tire brand HOWEVER i think i have found a better combination because as I'm assmusing your car sits higher in the front then the back, because the front has a higher profile(sidewall) the combination i selected will give you a rake and should help front end confidence and lower it bit.

Ok the first set is....

Nitto Invo's
255/35ZR-20 97W XL B For the front ($179~ Each)
275/40R-20 106W XL B For the rear ($212~ Each)


The good about these tires
Really good dry good wet traction, Sticky and Road hugging, would be awesome to auto x should be pretty quite and make you smile int the twistys

The Bad
Low tread rating, summer only tire, Will be dead in 30-35K or less for the rear if you drive real hard.

Next picks are....

Continental ExtremeContact DWS
255/35ZR20 97Y XL B For the front ($165~ Each)
275/40ZR20 106W XL B For the rear ($240~ Each)


The Good
Sticky tire, Great dry and Great wet traction, High tread rating, great for stop light fun, awesome Fall tire, the nitti's would be kinda hard around 40 and below (atleast until they heat up) if you are still driving you car now and plan to tothe end of october buy these. should last 50K more or less on drivng habbits

The Bad
All season tire, Soft sidewall, would work in an auto x situation but wont give you the confidence of the nitto's

As far as getting the tire look around I pulled them out of my book and read the numbers/specs... Look on tire rack and discount tire or go to you local tire place and see if they can order them for you.

fyi 255/35/20 is a horrible choice for a front size to go with a 275/40/20...mr. tire god...

and conti DWS's are a bad choice for a performance tire. they are super soft on the sidewall. they are a non sporty all season tire for performance car owners who just don't need high performance tires.

invo's are a good choice but you will want a 245/45/20 front. i have no idea why they put 255/45/20's on the front of his car to go with 275/40/20's when 245/45/20 are the same height as 275/40/20 and are also made in NT-05's or invo's.
