that size will fit easily enough, but it is way more tire than your car needs. spend the money on a good torque arm instead. it is more appropriate to the power level you are at right now.

the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.

tons of people have broken them or tons heard about it?
edelbrock TA's are made in the same factory as the slp and random tech ones. so i would not take one person breaking one as a sign that they are all bad. i have read stories of people breaking jsut about eveyr brand of ta's at different times adn more often than not it had more to do with abuse and wear than any defect in the product

Yeah i agree with the torque arm thing...sounds like the best mod for your car at the moment...


PS- wayfast talking about what's gay and what's not is like me giving people dieting advice...doesn't work, does it?
