I have BFG G Force Sports in the stock size 215/45 and they are pretty sticky, I like them. I've only got about 1k miles on them so far though.

I'm looking to get some drag radials

 

[hornsfan10609]

Nitto makes a good and relatively affordable drag radial, as does BFG.

Sam one of the best vendors and will always vouch from him... those welds are beautiful but thats a different method of welding then what was using on mine but i always thought the welds should connect for strength i might be wrong

 

[fuadmsp]

new grill

 

[hornsfan10609]

Damn those headlights look really good. You can actually buy them blacked out like that for the same price as the chrome ones. I did mine recently but I smoked the inside turn signal light some and removed the amber reflector, (I always hated that thing) as well as painted them titanium instead of black.

 

[fuadmsp]

I got a deal on the new set of the headlight and i blacked out everything except the back of the headlight dome I black out the inside of the turn signal the headlights that are for sale blacked out orginally arent exactly the way I want them..... The reason why I kept the amber is cuz Obvously I bought amber side markers and put amber overlays on my new tail lights but also don't like how bare the light bulb looks with out the amber cover or the clear cover that comes on aftermarket headlight unlike the p5 headlight that don't have the corner light are okay with me
