I'm sure they'll work great, however, it sure looks like one heck of a lot of tire for the stock (skinny) rims...

Are those the V710?  Looks like they have some life in them still.  More application of power to the road.  ;)

How am I going to compete with that? I'm falling further and further behind. Oh well, it's fun anyway!
Driving in Europe is more fun!

Minibot/Tristan: no problem funning is fun, and puddles would make minirox a hydro with those tires. Watch out miss budwiser.

 Ken:  Yes they are not as wide of rims as I thought, You should have seen the tire guy installing them. Like a monkey yada yada yada.I may have to get some wider ones later, I will see how they work on the 13th

Phydaux: Yes they are V710 225/50 15" on 15 X 5.5 rims

  Wayne: Rox wanted an edge what can I say, you beat her the last 2 times.

When in doubt power out.

 Got some new Team Dynamics Pro Race 2s 15 X 7s from Group 2 they mounted my stickies on them, as the dial rims were just to thin.

 Got a great deal and they did an excellant job.

 Thanks Joe, Chris, De Witt and the group 2 team.

You "gotta" show us pix w/those sticky's on the car!  They looked sweet sitting in your truck but I know they'll look MUCH better on your car.

Sweet!  Do they give you the grip you were looking for?

 MOST DEFINITELY.

 In the morning group I was the second fastest. Of course all the hot shoes are at Packwood this weekend. Rox did great and loves the new shoes.

Would you say that the stickies have lowered your time at all? And if so, do you have a rough guestimation of about how much?

OH yeah, one more thing.....May I borrow them on the 28th of this month around 8am"ish"?  See you there!
