tire sizes
i thought i should share some valuable info. first, '97+ dodge avenger wheels fit svx's from 15 to 20" akuza creations. today i fitted 245/50-16 tires. there is 2,100 lbs over the front wheels which is equivalent to a ferrari 612 scaglietti with 50/50 distribution and 245/40-19 front tires, which are equal to a 245/50-17 ('08 acura rl) or 245/45-18 (jag xk8). the height is crucial for response dynamics, especially in autocross. also, the bmw m6 uses 255/40-19 front with close to 2100 lbs front. i'm converting to rwd and 255/50-16 rear tires-think bmw m3 255/40-18. also ccrengines.com has aircraft quality 3.3L with a 3 yr/36k m warranty and custom cams for $3,605. today i bought a set of enkei wheels with falken z rated a/s tires for under $800 from discounttiredirect. tomssvx is the chief engineer and i have alot of faith in him.
