Actually, 32's...but they're not rated past 112mph. (I've had her at 115
though and she still wanted more!) ;)

I wouldn't bother, your limited to like 115mph... maybe if you put 2 of
Bernd's tires on teh back. this would make that 115limiter more like
150ish... (35's right Bernd) thus it would be a rate of 143.75mph... but it
would be fun as hell... get them to shorten it to a mile, you'll have em...
