you made a good point and one that i didnt consider. My post was aimed at the overall gearing part of the responses
The gearing is a small part of the total issue.... but only a very small part.....compared to sidewall...
I have decided to run some GTA Fronts with 28x11.5x16 ET Streets... on my combo for the stealth approach.... and am sweating potential traction issues (I haven't run my car with new combo)....... I would rather have 28 x 10.5 x 15's ..... I am hoping I can hook the 16's good enough to get some low 1.50's.... high 1.40's 60' time.... If I am unsuccessful.... I'll either switch back to 15's... (have to take the LS1 disks off the back....).... and get a real tire...or live with it..... I have no other choice...
