    It looks like they may actually do quite well for me, now I have to figure out what I want to do with these brand new GS-D3 315s I just bought.

    Also what do you guys think would be necessary to fit a 345 under our IRS?
    11" rim? Not sure theyll fit on a 10.5.

    Tires 345/35/18 MT Drag Radials

    Spacers 40mm on Driver 30mm on Passenger

    They are just a touch outside the fender.....and I am okay with that. They are smoother than the M&H's I just pulled off.....they are 27.5" tall which I need.....I think they will hook plenty good enough.....and they are wider than the 345 M&H.

    well i was in dire need of some new tires so i went down to Big O and picked me up some Toyo drag radials. they are comparable to the Nittos in price. I get them installed on monday, so i will post up on what i think about them.

    Turns out the store manager owns a cobra and might be posting up on here some time soon so give him a big welcome if you see him!

    Welcome to the site Snake.

    So 04Whinin what'd they pair run you installed??
    Definitely let us know how you like them, and pics would be great
    if possible

    El Jefe this info you are tracking down is great! I have 3/8" spacers right now and I could not imagine running a 40mm spacer, that's like 1.5", way to much for my liking.

    I think I'll do the 315 if anything.

    As far as selling my 315s they are at my home in Indiana, I would have to ship them here so if you are willing to go that route I could probably work someting out with you, or anyone interested.

    Thanks for the info everyone,

    Josh

    Snake, Welcome to the site.

    Will be interesting to see how these tires do traction wise and wear wise. Then again, I'm not sure that Justin's test will for these tires will be the greatest indication of wear as he's been seeing less than 2k on even Nittos when a number of others have seen quite a bit more wear life.

    Ya even though the Nittos run smaller it seems people arent comfortable putting them on 10.5's. Everyones running 11's
