Interested? Chime in

I feel left out, I don't know my 58 Beetle from a 60. But I found this...

I found a way to waste 20 minutes..

I used to use the Miata calculator but it sucks now.
I wanted to go to a smaller tire to see how it would work with my setup, I didnt need such a tall tire.

Also, 325s wont fit without me beating the fuck out of the wheel wells, 275s are just fine for me, since I have so much suspension thats all I need to dead hook at my power level. My guess is I can pull the wheels a tiny bit on the track.. will find out later this year.

I’d leave it.

Personally, the only thing good about your truck IS the pinstripe.

Terrible


Next on the list is of course cam/pushrods/valve springs/lifter trays, TBSS intake manifold, blacked out front grill and bumper.. and see if I can find someone to trade these 22 inch wheels for a set more my style in 20 so I can run a little taller tire.

Thinking SS OEMS/Reps or other more 'muscle' type wheels than these tunerish wheels.

I've always used the 3M method. Is it paint or tape? I can't tell from the picture:-):-) but you're going to have to glaze it at minimum.

Its pin stripe paint over the clearcoat, hand drawn, has a 2012 watermark on it. Im not going to do any abrasion on it, if it comes to that id rather take it to the body shop.
