It is a very short tire but it is a slick. The reason for the short tire was 1) I had some 383 gears and wanted to help my ratio a bit and 2) the guy I bought the car from had lowered springs on the car and without changing the springs I would not have had clearance. I plan to go back to stock height but I have several passes left on my slicks.

Something I did not mention was that all original suspension will be transfered to a GM 8 3/4" rear.
