easy then, on the 8s put 195/530/13 and I would go for 175/530/13 on the front.

Come back to road-going, Jeff -- it all gets a little esoteric "up there" :)

Oh, and just another whisper from experience . . .

. . . when I went ModSpecProd with the Striker I rashly decided to save weight. I tore out most of the loom, removed the lights, horn, instruments, etc., etc.

I might have saved a kilogram or three, but the hassle of recreating a road-going car was not to be underestimated :(

Not recommended unless you're sure about your future direction.

So why have you gone back to road-going when the world and dog is going the other way David?

Jeff

We've been back in road-going since the 'Busa self-destructed -- so two years now. 1600cc (our car engine) doesn't fit well in ModSpecProd.

I figure that, if everybody else has gone to MSP, there might be an opportunity for some members of my family to get some pots :oops:
