once it's back from Don's, give me a call; would love to come and lend you a hand....

in all seriousness for the track; I would go with between 225-300 in the rear and 300-400 in the front....it will be a nice soft rebound in the rear....

FYI; I run 250's in the rear on the Cobra and 350 up front...


I think the "rule" is always go with 100lb/ more up front than the rear....
