front tires are going to be 255/35-20 on a 20x8.5" rim, and the rears are set for a 305/40-22 on a 22x12", but the rockers are going to sit 4" off the ground at ride height. It is one of my favorite cars in the shop. The chassis reminds me of an old RC/10 chassis with the side flares for the battery packs

As far as drivetrain, it's going to be running a TT LS motor of some type. originally it was going to get a 4L80, but with all the extra rotating mass of that damn converter, we're just sticking in a built 60 and be done with it. We'll do all the fab work for the turbo's here in house, we just won't be building the motor. we'll tune it here though.
