WOW!!! Now that's a tire.
CCWs came in today with 345/30/18 BFG drag radials. These things are monsterous :smash: As I was loading them in the truck at the airport cargo dock I was a little scared they would not fit and I just got through tubing the car 2" so they would not stick out. :eek: Everything fit great and I will post pictures on the car later because it got to dark to take any now. I do believe I have finally stopped my traction problems. On a roll in first gear it would barely break them loose, just get and GO>>>>> :auto:
Thanks for the wheels John@CCW they're purdy!!!

Re: WOW!!! Now that's a tire. (Godspeed)
The rear wheel is a 18" X 12". I think the 345 will fit on a 11.5" though. :cheers:

I need those! :cheers:
Did you happen to also get a matching set for the front? And how much did the CCW/BFG's cost you if you don't mind me asking?
