    Well went to my other set of wheels/tires. Firestone Firehawks GT size 245/45R20 with 20x8.5" wheels.

    Traction will be fun. See if I can run these tires or save up for winter tires which are $300 each.

    So we will see.

    Yesterday I got to an underpass, dropped it into second and punched it. Road was still wet and I spun the tires and had to get off it, but it sounded awesome for about a second lol
