First, I like and enjoy HR.

This current month, one of the feature resto mod cars is a nice looking high dollar modernized blue Nova. Its a 3000+lb street car, with no real aero upgrades or wheel well improvements..

The fact they upgraded to an aftermarket inboard brake IRS means to me, this is NOT a drag car.

It has the typical high HP LS motor, has an aftermarket front frame suspension, 18" wheels, and this is where it starts to IMO, gets funky, 14" front aftermarket disc brakes.

And the clincher, 225/18 front tires on 7" rims. Rears are not much wider.

The final combination of front brakes and tires makes zero sense to me. There is no 225 tire in the world that requires 14" brakes. realcrazy



Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
