I have the GM caliper brackets(2) needed for the 12" brake upgrade, and 2 Aimco 12" rotors, all new in the boxes, sell all for $140

I also have 2 Potenza RE750 16" 225's with about 100 miles on them, like new, sell both for $165.

Bridgestone Potenza RE750 is categorized by resellers as an Ultra High Performance summer tire. It has good reviews.

Jon,
The Potenzas are a high speed performance tire about the equal of Firehawks. They will bite better then Goodyear RSA's at the track with a street start(just spin enough to clean them up) They have long been a good choice for a street/strip combo tire, as are the Firehawks.
Nittos will bite better then the Potenza's IF you really heat them up with a good burn out. They are also lighter then Potenzas but are not suitable for high speed street use, and will last 15k miles at best if they never see the drag strip. If you are looking for a drag tire Nittos or something like them are better then the Potenzas, but only if you heat them up.
Hope this helps,
Doug
