Default Best Tire pricing- Wal-Mart

My newly acquired SPF 1939 is no years old and riding on older Michelin PS in 17". 335/35 rears in the rear and 275/40 in the front. The fronts rub and I want to go a bit smaller. Finding rubber to fit is a challenge. Michelin is still the only source for 335's. They are like 220 rubber and not very sticky for our cars power.

Rode in a friend's SPF new build R model running the Nitto Drag radial on the rear and the harder G2 in the front. I think his stacked injected Roush makes more power currently then my port injected motor which is getting tuned and a new ECU. All I can say is wow. He got on it hard in second gear and power shifted 3rd and was planted. I was truly amazed at the hook up. Now way I can put the power down like that I would be up in smoke and all over the road. Down shift to 3rd at 90. Straight hooked up and gone. Very impressive.

I can get the Nitto's in 315's for the rear and 255's for the front which should not rub and still fit my front 10" wheel. Shopped everywhere. Wally World was the best pricing. I would never have guessed it. Rears show at the local store tomorrow and the fronts come to my home on Weds. FYI for tire shoppers.
