I have the zii. Best traction ive had with a tire thus far. I run 225 45 on 18x7.5 wheels lowered on coils. No rubbing issues. These do run a bit wider than they say tho. There is a chart up somewhere. Lemme see if i can find it

Sounds great! I was leaning toward the Dunlops but wasn't sure because of the sizing.I would like to go a little wider so that size would be perfect thanks again and how low are you and do you mean coilover overs or just coil springs if so what kind if don't mind asking thanks

Im on ksport coils. I havent really taken the time to measure my curb height so i couldnt tell you exactly but im lower than a spring set up would take you.

Only used the RE-71's personally, super sticky. Not good in the rain but amazing in the dry, straight, turns, whatever. Just stick like glue all over everything.

If you are going to be drag racing I hear the best street able tire is the Toyo proxes 888 for hooking up. Don't know what power you have.
I have Yokohama advan neova ad08r's on the front and they do pretty well.
