928 horsepower equivalent 1400bhp - this thing would spin its wheel just leaving a stop sign

The last time I saw it, used as a down pmt for a new Camaro LT1, basically slicks, and I kept traction off

Are the Michelin Pilot Sports worth it? The Pirelli P7s for originality? Pilot Sport All-season? Vredestein for affordability? Staggered or 225s all-around.

Mine is all-natural, nothing fancy. Figured is I need to get a new alignment, I'd might as well look at some tire too.

I put Michelin Pilot Sports on my -79. 225:s on all 4. Very pleased and they dont look out of place.
