Question question for LightningDammitt

Hey LightningDammitt,
What size tires do you have ? I saw the pic on the fenderwell topic and I like the look. Also, what brand are they?
Does it screw up you speedometer and how is the ride and wear life and quietness?
Thanks in advance

You'll find all kinds of info here:

I took it to the track a few weeks ago with my f1's on another pair of rims... the f1's probably have another 3-5000 on them before they are totally bald...

My 60' times went from 2.15ish to 2.00ish... switching from the f1's to the Nitto's... I'm no rabid racer mind you...

It's interesting, because I thought for sure I had lost some acceleration down low, (due to larger diameter...) but evidently the traction gained MORE than makes up for it...

The speedo is off about 10%... a chip burner or Ford can adjust the speedo...

You can always do what I did. Put a 4.10 in, then have your chip man recalibrate for 3.73, which is what it nets out at with the 305's.
