Thanks! I did a lot of research on the toyos, I absolutely love them! What size tire did you get? Yupp he was there, his car was pretty sick, he even did some laps on the autocross track with his car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 That's how I did my procharger, I bought a VERY incomplete kit, mostly for the blower itself and the bracket lol.I have a pair of the R888's in 305/30/19, my buddy has the 305/30/18 R888 on his whippled terminator and he loves them. Kinda like having a drag radial with a sidewall that can take some turns and a tread pattern that is a bit more rain-friendly :thumb:The pushrod rear suspension in Vaughn's RTR-X is the stuff dreams are made of...at least for me lol. Vaughn seems like a cool guy from what I've seen, it would definitely be cool to meet him, did you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleeperstang1994 Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 Myself and WildWillyWalker have met Vaughn at a few drift events. Honestly I love his car... Not a nice guy. Maybe I've had some bad, multiple, first impressions. For as popular as he is it just doesn't seem like he really cares about his fans. Just my opinion.

On the way to carlisle it was absolutely pouring, i was doing 70+ mph through standing water, not once did i hydroplane. Meanwhile my dad was all over the road with his 315 35 17 nitto nt555s. Vaughns car is a work of art, Unfortunately i didn't get to meet him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I've had some bad, multiple, first impressions. For as popular as he is it just doesn't seem like he really cares about his fans. Just my opinion.Well that kinda sucks. I've seen some interviews of his and he always seemed cool, I guess not everyone is as cool in real life as they seem in the media.You'll love them.

My other choice was a Mickey Thompson drag radial but the only size that would fit my wheels out back was too tall of a sidewall and I've heard the M/T's wear out VERY fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they also hook the best. There definetely for a car that doesn't get much use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
