Very interesting...Thank you for your input. I already got some tires not exactly what you mentioned in the way that I got me a lower stance I got 285-45-18 Nitto 555R Extreme Drag Radials. And kept the stock size in the front. They have awesome griping power. You think if i get gears on top of some drag radials i wont see any difference in acceleration?
