So,
One of the first things I want to do with the Challenger is swap the wheels out and throw the Classic rims into storage, partly because I'm not a fan of chrome, especially when the rest of the car is black, and partly for the resale value.
I was planning on running the common setup of 20x8.5/20x10 (probably Foose Speed Black wheels) and was thinking of retaining the F1s for the front end to save cash (I just got my motorcycle back from some thieving scumbags and it needs repairs).
So, how are the F1s as front tires? Every complaint I've heard about them is primarily related to wheel hop, which suggests to me that they have too much traction for doing rolling burnouts, which should be a good thing for the front, no?
I'm planning on going to 275/40/20 in the back (but have some wiggle room if there's a good tire in a similar size), but I don't really know what tires would work well back there, I don't want to have a massive difference in traction from front to rear, but the F1s don't come in the wider size.
Is this all fundamentally a bad idea?
Cheers.
