    that setup might work for drag racing but would be a disaster if they try to drift with that ?silvia

    I think that car is set up for nothing more than show. I doubt it has the power (~500hp) necessary to call for those tires.

    Drifting is fun to watch, but I don't really consider it a competition, like drag, autox or road racing. /Rant

    Kinda looks cool but doesn't look right. It would be better if the fenders were molded into the body so the wheels didn't look as if they were poking out.

    in drifting, your competing technique against technique. then you have the side by side drift. don't know what the proper name is though... :p

    tandem drifting? is that what you're looking for?


    and those tires, being that wide for drifting is okay as long as you have the power to make it kick loose. To drift properly, you need traction because without it you're prone to spin out easily.

    that's it...tandem drifting....

    the car just doesn't look right with those tires on though..I know that drifters use wide tires...but something just strikes wrong about those tires...

    looks like crap. I hate it when people stretch their tires to fit the wheels like that. Its stupid and looks like shit. 305's or 315's would look much better on those wheels.
