Can you get those things to hook up? Sounds like you need to fill the rest of that wheel well up with all those ponies.

I can powerbrake mine and the first tire will start spinning at ~1100 RPMs.

Not sure when the second one kicks in but easy to do. At 3000 RPMs, I'm having some real fun. I really liked it when I had 235/60R15 on the back. We need to get together somewhere so y'all see for yourselves.
