New wheels slower e.t.'s?


today my new 18X10 inch black bullits with 275-40-18 zr's are being put on (on all 4) do you think the wide tires up front will hurt my quarter times?

I would have gone with offset. maybe 8 or 9 inches in the front. 10 is too much for me. It might hurt a little, maybe .1-.3 or so.....that is my guess anyway. heck, i guess the only way to find out is to run it again! Good luck

dude i didn't think you could fit 10 wide tires up front without rubbing. but the taller tire will hurt the time

Doesn't 10" tires up front affect your turning radius?
