Picked up a set of used MT ET Street Drag radials...tall ass 275/60/15s
Also got a set of Lakewood 50/50 rear drag shocks. Tires were $100 used and still have a decent amount of life left, the shocks were 50 bucks and only have 300 miles on them. So I save a few bucks on the tires and saved $42 on the shocks. I'm quite happy. I can't wait to put the stuff in. I'm going to have to cut my rear wheel well to squeeze the 28s in there, but it will be sweet seeing them stuffed in. They are a little too much for my application right now, but in the spring I'll be switching to a 9 inch with either 3.73s or 3.89s, so I should be able to spin them better. I'm basically doing full suspension and rear end to get the car ready for the motor that I will eventually build. The transmission is already taken care of, so all thats left is to make sure the rear can handle the duty.
