I'm looking forward to it being a "street legal" CP monster.

That has been the goal with my car also. I've been running 27x13's on 16x12 Real wheels tucked in pretty tight to aviod clipping cones, but I get some serious rubbing from time to time, so I'm looking for ways to get more tire clearance on the inside only.

I've tried both bias ply and radial 13 inch slicks; interesting thing is the bias tires don't rub hardly at all. Apparently the radials are much more flexy.
