tire size
I have a jato and need new tires, will 2.2 road rage tires slow down the car because they are smaller? road rage-3.6 outer diameter, stock tire is 3.8

RE: tire size
Slower top end final speed, but, better acceleration.
My friend has a Jato. One thing I noticed is that the Jato is not a pocket rocket for acceleration, so, the road rages will help a little. I do like when it hits second gear, fast as heck!
You will either not notice it at all or it will barely affect your perfomance.

RE: tire size
I run the road rages on mine and it's sweet...it won't loose much at all...you'll never notice a difference and as OddsNEnds said when it shifts to second it takes off.

RE: tire size
Get the Dirt Hawgs for the rear. I go WOT from the start and i have zero wheel spin. I have a M/S airfilter and i'm running 33%.
I had the speed hawgs in the rear and they would just spin. But, the speed hawgs are great for the front on streets.
So,
Front: Speed Hawgs
Rear: Dirt Hawgs
