    I deff would not buy that tread for a daily driven car, they are damn near slicks, they say on the sidewall for competition use only, my falkens azeins or whatever theyre called were not too bad in the rain tho, they had a little more tread on them

    The quad shocks? I'm goin to take them out before I put them on, I'm just hoping that they fit without any problems, I may have to roll the fenders a bit

    Yeah, I doubt you'll get them meats in there without doing something. Those should look awesome under there!!

    I'm praying they do, not a real big fan of having to run wheel spacers, but if I have to I will, a lil hammering may be required, but ill see I still need to get the car back from paint so once I do that ill test fit em n see how she sits

    Also, they look like sumi's, and sumi's may run narrower than the nt-01's do.

    how is the width going to be different cause of the height of the tire.. Those are 315/35s... he has 315/30s... they should ride the same height... And from my understanding nitto is one of the smaller running width tire. For example the 275s MT et street radials i had on that car were the same width as a 305 nitto

    I looked at those tires and was gonna buy them but instead chose the nt-05's 315's instead. Those nt-01's are more for road racing/autocross
