I little off 50/50 with more weight on the front. I think it's somewhere like 56/44 or something... I'm too lazy to look up the stats.

rear tire size

Dwnshift,
What size rear tire are you running...275 or larger? I think a 275 would be fine for now but once people start getting a TT kit making 550 hp then at least a 315 would be in order. I do believe i remember you saying before that nothing larger than a 275 would fit i think. What would you have to modify in order to fit say a 315 size tire?
Thanks

275 on the rear
you can go wider....start running out of room for the suspension. Then you will have to run and totally differnt offset or really start using spacers with wheel flares.
