Decent handling susp setup?

Lol, Ehrenburg & co. put the Green Brick in 3rd place in the One Lap of America, behind only a Mosler GT and a Mallett C5 'vette. On 225/50VR15 Gatorback Goodyears!! When
I see/hear "225's ain't gonna get it done", I laugh out loud, really...........? I'm NOT arguing they are ideal by any stretch, and certainly E-booger & crew were looking to make
an improvement, mainly because of the already availability issues with good 15" shoes, but to say they're not going to get it done is laughable. The OP said He wasn't planning
to auto-X, just have some fun on the civilian twisties, the combo of performance and looks is also in play here. They didn't care if the 225/50's looked smallish, they worked &
kept the car low, and they stuck. If You look at whats available, there are still a decent selection of 16" that would work, but if You're not making the switch economically, You
might as well jump straight to 17's and get it over with.
