You run in 4x4 at the track don't you?? Thought running different size tires in 4x4 wasn't good.

Or you 2wd and am I smoking crack?

Yes mines 4wd, but I made sure the tires are the same diameter for 4wd even though they are different widths.

Oh gotcha, ya guess it would be the diameter that would cause the biggest issues.

And in fact the only issue. I measured out the actual circumference and they measured within 1/8" of each other, and since the rears are worn slightly now, im sure they are about equal.

guessing you run 2wd 99% of the time anyways so the added traction while on the streets is nice

Exactly. I hook better on the street than the track anyway...no stupid water box and the tires are already warm from driving around
