Too much wear and tear on an AWD car? Dude its a race rally proven car. You will wear out before it does.

Plus puting a L motor in a ranger? Why not just put the L motor in a donor 150?

Well since I doubt this project will ever get of the ground I am out..

A race rally proven car? Are you kidding me? An EVO has nothing in common with a real rally car.

Well I know that, but Ive been searching for tires wider then 305/45 (Nitto 555R) but the only ones I can find aren't tall enough.
