Hoosier Pro-Street Radials, 31x16.50R-17 and 24x7.50R-15. Hoosier is the only source for big weenies to fit 17" wheels.
With pleasure:Now that looks bad a$$!! Can you post a close up of your seat? It looks from that angle one seat towards the center.......Great stance low and level! Sorry didn't mean to highjack thread for the seat, but, sure others would like to see also.
With pleasure:
Those are office chairs with the arms and bases removed. Very comfortable. You can see more at my build thread: Big redo of the old bucket
"Very comfortable" t-bucket seats? I didn't realize that was possible!![]()
So skinny on front of T is a good thing?I pulled this off the internet..I have done this before on a pickup. If I remember correctly, I had radials on the front, and it was a washy type drive. Had to fight the steering all the time.
Laws allow radials rear, bias front, but not the other way around. I had a VW that had bias, put a radial (spare) on the back, and it tried to kill me the first time I took it over 20 mph! Absolutely uncontrollable..
Radials on back and bias on front will cause understeer. Comversely bias on rear and radials on front will cause oversteer. This goes for wider tires on back and/or wider offset wheels than those on the front even if all are radials. Wider tires/wheels on front are a recipe for oversteer too which is more dangerous than understeer.
Drives great. My problem is the corvair box. But that's another story.. I thought about 15x7 uo front for some more grip. Lol. I don't need to be pushing this car that hard anyway.Cooter, with all the driving you have done recently, I bet you would know if it was driving bad. Not heard any complaints from you yet.. GOOD THING!
How is Corvair box a problem?Drives great. My problem is the corvair box. But that's another story.. I thought about 15x7 uo front for some more grip. Lol. I don't need to be pushing this car that hard anyway.
