as mentioned elswhere, 19" toyo t1r's.

in my experience, a good set of headers/exhaust will help keep operating temps down. i had the oem i/c pump fail (as has most) but since adding my full exhaust i haven't had an issue with temps or s/c shutdown. that doesn't mean i'm not thinking about an i/c upgrade though.

I run both 18s and 20s. The 20s seemed so slow that I thought the pump failed again.

K-1 with stock 18's and 275's for now. I'm looking at a CCW that may force me into 19's for the width I want.
