I wasnt shifting fast cuz I lose traction through 3rd if I slam them but enjoy.

what tires?

 

[svtsilversnake]

315/35/zr17 sumioto < or however you spell it> all terrain tires.

 

[Gallows]

It rev's quick:burnout:

For as much hate as the Tomos get, they are actually an awesome ass tire. I had them on my '97 for 2 years and never had one problem. They hooked great for a street tire and performed excellent in cold weather/rain.

Plus my 275s looked like 305s for some reason. Very nice tire.

They seem like they have worn quick since I got them. Probly my fault. I think a street dot radial would be alot better tho.

What exhaust do you have on it?

upr o/r x and super 40 catback. I want custom headers and a kooks of road x with 3" lm2 dumps.

Lol I should post up a vid of mine. It looks super fast, but it's really just because I haven't got a speedometer gear yet. 4.30s are fun

Ive been through three sets of the sumitumos and each time they wore pretty quickly imo. When theyre brand new they dont seem so bad, but once they get worn pretty good they suck. They spin so easily it wears the middle of the tire alot. This time around I did Nittos all around. 315 555Rs in the back and 275 555s in the front. Sofar they seem waay better. I may just try to stick with the Nittos for now on...

sweet man i cant wait to get me 4.10's in

 

[supercarkiller]

damn ur tires hooked great!

 

[SaleenFiend]

damn ur tires hooked great!

Yea I know.. too bad our cars will tear up those tires in 1st

 

[shhak]

I put 4.30's in my last 03 cobra. With sticky tires, they were cool. But with street tires, they weren't much fun (unless you like 1320' - 120mph burnouts...)

 

[wma8706]

yea... those gears are a blast to drive on the streets. Best mod you can put on that car short of a power adder!

 

[03DOHC]

Looks like fun!

4.30s were the only go fast mod I had on my 97 Cobra and I loved those gears. The 1-2 shift comes up really damn quick!

All terrains?

I think you might have misunderstood something there.

 

[CobraBob]

You definitely hooked really nice, and the revs built fast between gears. Nice setup IMO. Best of luck with it. It sure must be a lot more fun to drive now. Eh?

 

[GeoffGT]

nice vid

Its alot more fun to drive now. Im still trying to figure out where I need to be shifting with these new gears tho. I dont wanna over rev it ya know.
