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

Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
