I have 71, 045 miles and im running Sumitomo 255/40 on on stock 18s for the rear and 225/40 up front. With more than 3/4 tread life

Excellent thanx for the advice ill def stay out of the water box this upcoming friday.

Ill def check it out. And yeah thats the only thing stopping me forthe sound system. It should only sliw you down a tenth of a second or so, so you should still be hitting around the 13.5~13.65 area.

Not bad at all for your first time. Now I'm wondering what you'd run with stickier tires, exhaust, midpipe, & a Joe Z intake.....keep us posted for your next run!
