For reference, I'm 19x13 in the rear and 19x11 in the fronts. 355/295 sized tires. Lol. The grip is there to make a great dragon run, but the fun is not.
I see your point. I wish I had those kind of options ... nice setup.

If I put good tires on my Genesis Coupe 3.8 Track..... I think I could take my S2000 on the Dragon..... but wouldn't be as much fun...... the S2000 handles so much better, the Genesis has a lot more torque/power coming out of the turns and on the straightaways....
