    seat position

    seat position

    Yeah, they where out of a 2 door. I suppose I could go the "my time isn't worth anything" route and find a way to extend the passenger track.

    Tire/Wheel combinations

    tires and rims My mentor has been telling me to go with a 6" front and 8" rear. When it comes to wheel size I was told to consider final gear ratios, engine rpm and cruising speed. He also suggested at least 1" difference in size between the front and rear. Style of the rims is my nightmare...
