Will this week i got my alloy 16x8 rims and i jsut ordered my M/T ET STREET RADIALS.. 26x10.5x16 (255/50/16)
Last time I ran, I ran in 80* weather on my 17x9 up front (275/40) and 17x10.5 in the rear (315/35) Nitto EXTREMES (street tires; pratically brand new).
My best time was a 12.30 @ 115.56 with a 1.9 60'
Now i will have my 16s on. Chrome in the front, alloy in the back. And with brand new M/T rubber.
So 11s here i come :) :drive:

im sure it should, on the street if i do a small burnout rev it to 3k and just slip the clutch fast it will spin a tiny bit then hook on the track i would rev it higher but ur mt's will hook even harder dont dump it or kiss that rear bye bye lol

Went hard on my 10 bolt saturday night, had clutch issues but had some hard 1.8 60' foots on the 255 m/t radials and knock on wood so far so good. I just revved to 3500 and slipped the clutch pretty quickly but didnt dump it!

I had M/T's on my 10 bolt with 4.10's at the track last time I went and it did fine. I just slipped it easy out of the hole to be safe. Good luck!
