Anyone using BFG DR's size 275-60-15 on factory wheels?

I just wanted to see a pic of them on a car if possible, THANKS

I have them but I don't have any pictures of them on the car. When I get some I will post them

I can't get the link to work......

It's a long story, but it should work again in a couple of days. About 50 people hit that page until about 11AM this morning - then nothing from the server at all.

NSI (now Verisign) f'd it up on me. jimmyz.net points to the wrong nameservers.

Sorry,

Jim

OK...I'll try again in a couple of days. I really want to see some pics before I order those tires.

Dan,
I was just curious. Have you raced against your Z-28?

 

[Dan K]

What are you asking me?
Have I raced the Z against the GN?
No contest, GN in a walk.

 

[Darkside]

Yes,
I just thought the GN and the Z might be close? I know depends on mods, but you own both cars and would know which was faster. Thanks

My brother just traded his '99 Z 6-speed for an '02 WS-6 TA last night. We were goofing around a little on the way.....

His car has a lid, SLP exhaust, Z06 clutch, and some other mods. First time we left a light with me behind him. I stayed glued to his bumper and had to pedal it to keep from hitting him.

2nd time, I was in front and he stayed glued to MY bumper while I spun half way through 2nd gear (broke loose on the 1-2).

I'm in "street" tune with conservative timing and 17-18 PSI. I was impressed with the way the LS1s run, though. The Z ran a 13.4 @ 105 totally stock. We're hoping once the WS-6 is broken in it'll run a little quicker (some folks are saying the '02s are a little quicker).

Bottom line is you have to have a little more than the basic mods (mid-13 sec range) if you expect to walk away from even a stock one.

I just got them done and they touch the frame a tiny bit. Gonna pick up a set of 1/4 in. spacers, she'll been fine then!!!
