... talk me out of pinching 335s onto 11" rims at all four corners on MonZora 3.0. I already have several cons, but I'm kinda OK knowing it will be sub-optimal. Because 335s.

I'm pretty sure I won't listen, but you can try.

335, 336, whatever it takes.

One of the reasons everyone was happy you got to retire early was cause we knew you'd make bad financial decisions that would entertain us.

Now is that time.

Why stop at 335s? You could start your own tire company and make 435s if you really wanted to win.

Good to know that buying a tire manufacturer is Challenge budget exempt.

Why pinch tires? You live close enough to Weldcraft Wheels to drop the 11's off and pick up 12's.

In 2020 I wedged some 315's up under a Toyota Avalon on cut springs and got 4th in autocross. It can only help!

Challenge budget does not support paying anyone to do anything. Maybe I could get a part time job there, and do it myself after hours. 🤘🏻😎

Super Singles are 445. Now you've got me pondering things.

Creative budget interpretation has never slowed you down...

Or, stop by and see if one of their guys wants to join Team MonZora.

Why stop there, wider is better. Get yourself a setup like NASCAR Modifieds. Those have to be the widest tire available. Corner like it's on rails! 🤪

I think I may have achieved maximum tire on the Zoomboni.   23x14 fronts on 13" diameter wheels, 25x14 rears on 15" diameter wheels.  (Front and rear wheels are 14" wide)

I'll try to get back to the Challenge with it in 2025.

 

But yeah, get all the tire you can under (beside?) the vehicle.
