Need some Nitto DR's fast - Where can I buy em cheap and what size?

2FastLX · 10-18-2001, 05:39 PM

I have a 90 LX and am in need of some Nitto DR's for next Saturday. We are going to the track and I need something to help me hook up. Who has them the cheapest? Also, what's the widest tire I can fit under there with and without the quad shocks? And will flipping the quads give me more room and still let me use them on the car?
Oh yeah. I have 16" wheels too.

Thanks.

The Goodyear where I live sells the Nittos for ~$140 per tire (275/50/15). Not sure what the diff would be for 16s.

Kevin, if you want I will bring my extra set of slicks (26-8.5x15) You can use them a few times or bur them if you want.
