What mufflers did you use. Part number if you have it. And also where did you get the ball and socket connections (think that's what they are called) you used on the exhaust. Thanks and that's a CLEAN SICK sounding truck

been thinking about picking up some intro vista 2 rims with nitto nt05R tires 315/35/20 for the rear.
anyone know any info on this tire and how long it would last on the street?

I've been thinking it, in fact my 18" wheels will be arriving today, I want to run 315's all the way around for autocross.. Those are drag radials you posted up so they wont work for my application but they look nice.
Look at the treadwear, that's usually a pretty good indication of tire life, lower number = softer tire = less life.. I had a friend run nittos and he got reasonable life on them, when I say reasonable I mean 10-13k on them before they needed changing.
Most of it depends on your driving, weight of vehicle and how many times to light em up.. You dont get 50k out of set of them, but then again you don't buy drag radials to go pick up groceries either...

I have the NT05R in 305/45/18 and I would not run them on a daily, especially somewhere cold and rainy. They hook better on the street than the 555R they replaced but treadwear is significantly less and they are horrible in the rain.
