Thanx you guys. Dave you coming up? Greg, not sure putting Hoosiers on my hubs would be "ABRS" (approved by Ron Sutton)LOL, i'm shopping for tires right now for the Forgelines that'll be here soon. I shopped many of rims, Forgeline, Budniks, Formula 43, CCW and the Forgeline GZ3's are the exact look I want.

I may end up going Falken Azensis, or BFG KDW"s or Supersports but my sizes are limited....

You know Mike -- When Sutton first brought the loading of these hubs and bearings up --- I was kinda going back to when Bill Howell was going on about safety. Yes - BH is correct and I agree with him... and of course so is Sutton... and while a guy might run for many many sessions without issues. I can sure tell you that I feel one hell of a lot better with the safety issues covered. I DO NOT want to go into turn 1 at Thill and have a suspension parts failure!

I am guessing I will make an appearance one of the days if I can get away.

What widths Forgelines did you order?

Assuming you can stuff 335 if you want with your mini tub?

Remind me - what front sub you have?

someone makes a larger bearing hubs for these spindles, we ran them Solo I cars back in the day. I can't see to remember who.


edit: looks like you have the billet Baer hub.

are the factory hubs and bearings not strong enough for sticky tires?
