Define alot of power. What does your engine combination consist of and what transmission are you using?

Team Z Motorsports Complete Rear Package - Strip Series #1, stock V8 rear springs, Strange adjustable rear shocks, Strange adjustable front struts, and 14" 130# coil overs in the front. That set up, when tuned properly will hook anything you throw at it. It would be wise to install a tubular K-member and control arms while your at it.

You shouldn't need any more than a 28x10.5 slick or 325/50-15 drag radial.
