No just the rear. For a few reasons. #1 I'm using first gear alot more than I used to. 3.06X3.42=alot of torque. So the extra tread width will help. #2 Pro Solo's. Folks who haven't done one don't realize how fun this can be. And the extra width along with sidewall flex will help the launch. #3 Extra sidewall flex from being mounted on an 11" wheel. Will help the launch, help put power down on course, and have a feeling the rear will be a bit more predictable. My light wheel purchase includes buying a set of 18x12's for the new V710 315/18's. And then later buy another set of 17x11's for the rear W/335/17's Temps are not a concern in back for obvious reasons (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Up front ANY thing over a 315 is too big. I'm gonna build some of the relective blankets to keep em'warm.

The wheels would be relying strictly on the lugs for locating. Or I wonder if I could get a spacer built that has a hub nub that sticks out to act as a wheel pilot. BTW not sure where this topic would go...
