The only thing I notice on the car is excessive rubber when I use my 275 drag radials!

yep, Max's tires stick out more than mine w/ his wheels, so he'll be yelling before I do...the way our quarter panels are, you will see rock chips w/ any size tires if you aren't careful where you drive...this baby doesn't see gravel unless necessary and then only at slow speed...I have F1's, so they aren't big rocks catchers, but when they are heated up, they will pick up anything...so just be careful....
