This is the Build Thread for ‘08 Shelby GT. Reply below.

Welcome and a small suggestion would be to view some of the better 200 TWR tires tested at Grassroots Motorsports and Tire Rack and you can improve your times over the Nittos. They are inexpensive, but really are not a competitive tire for well over a decade and a half if not longer---- remember tires are the #1 mod to improve times.

Many thanks & totally agree..new Nitto’s came on the car but I’d never buy them. I was so impressed with the Michelin’s on my c6 z06 @ Laguna I’d be hard pressed to choose another street tire but am open to opinions.

Current build:
Wilwood 6-piston calipers & 2-pc. F&R rotors, Goodridge s/s lines, RBF600 fluid
