New England Drivers.....going to 34s

[stephan07]

So, Ive been riding on 285/70/17 Nittos.....They are do for a change and I bought some Cooper STT pro 315/70/17 off a forum guy. New, never used.

Called up Sullivan Tire in Bedford, MA. Used them a lot. THey told me DOT would not allow them to go above 3% increase in tire size.....

ANyone got recs for a good shop in the metrowest area?? BMC and rolling kings, should be no issue with rubbing.

They may not rub sitting on a flat road or highway, and going lock to lock on the steering. But what about when you get a lot of axle articulation?

Not a lot of places to go wheeling in Boston unless he's hopping some curbs...

Thats why its good to have 250 acres in Vermont and a place on the cape. A lot of offload stuff in VT and some good beach driving on Nauset Beach. The 4runner is not my daily, the RS6 is.

I think the tires look great. So far they seem to drive smoother than my Nittos. No rubbing at all, but I will see this weekend on some old roads up in VT.

Here you go. Unitronic Stage 2 plus intake, a little over 800 ponies. pulls and pulls and pulls......She shares a bay with the F-car, whish is actually up quite a bit in value from when I purchased it.

I love the RS6 and considered a RS6 or 7 but they felt too big for me and harder to fit in my garage since I park it under my lift. Are you making 800 on just pump gas?

I have IE stage 1 ecu/stage 2 tcu on my RS5 and it is fast enough for me for now. I do love modding though so it has carbon steering wheel, H&R VTF coilovers, BC Forged Wheels, Milltek race exhaust and unitronic carbon intake. Wish i could have those 2 cars in my garage!
