Will I have an issue with handling???
Hello Everyone!
I'm switching from a small block Chev to a blown 392 hemi & was wondering with the wheels & tires that I have is there going to be a handling/stopping issue? Tires are Firestone 125R x 15's with a load rating of 1355 lb's. 5" section width & 3 3/4" tread width... Wheels are the ET III's 15 x 4 1/2"....Everything was fine with the small block but hemi weights 900 pounds! I am going to switch the front springs to the ones recommended by Pete & Jakes {their chassis set-up}. Is this to much weight for my current wheeels/tires??? ET III also makes these rims in 15 x 6 size so I could get those along with wider tires...... Thanks, Bill
