It's funny cuz I was into diesel performance in the '90s when most guys hated the smell of diesel exhaust. I moved away once the knuckleheads got into it. I saw a Cummins Dodge on the hiway today with skateboard wheels. Looked like wheels and tires from an Indy car. All four stuck out past the body a good 5-6". Prolly thinks he's a diesel expert and now he's going to learn about breaking windshields, chipping paint, and replacing broken hub/steering parts.
I've seen similar wheels and tires on big trucks here in Utah. They look ridiculous. Not sure who starts these trends or why.

Re: Diesel Killer

If you want to go to a sanctioned drag strip you better pay attention to the rule book. If you run any kind of sticky tire you will need longer studs, and c-clip eliminators with a 12 bolt. If you run faster than about 11:50 you need a roll bar.
