Default tire setup

so whats every1's current tire setup1!?!?!

im running the falken fk451's up front

225/45/17... the are nice... id say as good if not better then azenis.. maybe because of the smaller sidewall?

out back ive got potenza 010.. they are ok... 215/45/17.. but they squeel a hell of a lot and smoke too.. so they will be good...

at primus what will u guys be doing.. running bigger rims for control and more technique or smaller rims to smoke more and put on a show..???

its just a practice so id reccomend learning some technique.. but due to stuffs im just gonna have 1 set of 17's and 3 sets of 15's with pirelli p600's.. should be fun


post yo shit nigga

I'll be running whatever tires I can get my hands on... right now it looks like some bald azenis up front and some dryrotted tires in back...

funk-you still have those 205-50-15 azenis? maybe I'll buy them off you to replace the baldness...
