I dont even know where to take my rods to get them shot peened if I wanted to...

Thanks for ALL the advice... I think for the bling factor, the peace of mind factor, the cool factor, the wow factor and all the other envious factors: IM gunna just get a set of Pauters... I was thinking about Crowers, but from what I gather, they're shot peened stockers... Actually, I think Im...
Has anyone tried the Nitto NT-01? The new Nitto drag radial? Looks like they improved it, and from what I read, its getting good reviews... And with a slightly stiffer side wall, it makes it more "streetable"... The thing I hated about my old MT drag radials was that the side walls were too soft...
