Dave, I'll take the old school fat tires and a mean "rake" over the o-ring tired G-machines of today. (Before some get their feelings hurt I do like some of those G-machines but they are not my preference.) However I do prefer to see the tallest and widest tires you can fit in the rear wheelwells without sticking out of the sides. Look at the current issue of PHR with Tony Bartones 69 Camaro in it. It has 315/60R-18 tires on the rear, those suckers are 33" tall! That is what is on my Suburban. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/[/img]

Budnate, as a famous hot rod builder once told me "if ain't rubbin' then it ain't right". You made me remember an old license plate that was on the front of a Chevelle that I bought. It said something similar as your tag frame: Fat Tires = NO FAT CHICKS!
