Well I picked up these 18" CCW'S from a buddy who ran them on his gen IV. Fit great and no need for an e brake relocate as has already been mentioned (thanks Jack). I did flex the e brake cables in just a touch to create a little more clearance.

I will be selling these MT 345's since they are a 27.5 inch tall tire so I can run a stock hieght 26 inch tire.

Here's a few pictures.

has anybody tried running a narrower wheel/tire setup on the fronts to reduce rotating mass?

Gen II guys ran CCW'S big and littles all the time. Since Viper has evolved into more of a road race car a lot of guys have gotten away from drag racing.

I'll go back to the MT's in the future. I'll probably race it with boltons this year on a 26" tall tire, and then spray it or go a different route next year and go back to the MT's. Its the best tire for this car once its making 700 RWHP +

All the narrow tires were16", they won't fit.

BTW I am going to list a G2 drag pack if anyone is interested.

Wanted to but have a family reunion all weekend that I'm attending. I'll get out there with you before too long. I'm interested to see how your new clutch holds up.
