    Any interest in OE Michelin's for Gen 1 and 2 (17 & 18in)?

    Looking on TireRack they do not list a single set of street tires for the 18" Vipers, only race tires.

    Finally ready to buy a Viper, have a few questions though.

    I think he installed a 5 point harness so the bag wasn't necessary, A removable steering wheel helps get in and out but not clutch leg knee clearance issues. He basically moved the steering wheel 3 inches farther toward him and away for the clutch peddle.

    Gen II Trunk Space

    If you have the spare tire in place not much space for anything but the top, maybe soft luggage like a duffle bag packed around the top and window. Just for information the Gen IIs are Dodges not SRTs. I have a 2000 RT10 with 13K I don't drive much I might part with.
