Trav I have been running those on my beater for a few years, I must say I am impressed. I am running a slightly smaller size than you 170/55/13 so the narrower tire helps but they have my vote

Hey everyone, Im new to this forum but have been part of evoxforums for quite a while. I bought a evo x a couple months ago and hopefully i can get to some meets that you guys go to. This is my 1st car that has a turbo on it so it would be cool for some of you to teach me a couple of things!

Please feel free to ask questions. Just remember that the info you recieve is mainly just opinion , with not a whole lot based on actual fact or based on experience.

So tread lightly and possibly seek advice from an experienced person with first hand actual data to back up their theory
