You would scare the shit out of yourself trying to stop the bloody things, might go for a brake upgrade on the XW, see how it goes first though !!!

I dont realy remember and I have binned alot of the old time slips. From what I have left they seem to be mid to high (Mainly High) 1.9's and then a heap of 2.00 to 2.10 They were the crappy Falken tyres. You had to do HUGE burnout's to get heat in them. I have so'3's now so i may even give them a couple runs just for the hell of it...

1.7, 60 foot. People have gone into the 11's and high 1.6 60 foot with these tyres!
The nitto 555r's are actually made by toyo, but toyo wont sell them here. Been told they are the best tyre to buy. Seen some nice cobra's run 1o's on nitto's, then again they were a touch wider at 315's.
