I run these, they are considerably better than the stock BFGoodrich's that came on the car, got me over 1/2 sec in 1/4 mile, seems the harder I launch the better, smoking them off the line get 1.9 60' times, good launch gets me 1.85 60' times. At 26" tall they make my 4.10's gears 4.30's.

arnt the 275s too wide? I mean the 265s say there for a 9-10" tire.

would be about as big as I think you would want to go. Within standard regs anyway. even those are pushing it a little.

I pretty sure I am going to go with http://www.jegs.com/i/Mickey-Thompso...oductId=753925 and some new rims from http://www.racestarindustries.com/ it should give me the bite im looking for. I wont be using these for daily use though, just at the drag strip. Skinnies on the front.

It all depends on the aspect ratio of the tire. A 275/40 would be too big for a stock 8.5" rim. A 275/50 is just right but taller.

oic, hey if your looking at race stars anyway, go to brenspeed. They have a great package with all required hardware and tires.

Roys07GT

Ditto! This is the setup I am looking into, would rather put the $$ into other parts though, also had someone at the drag strip tell me the racestars are a pain in the @ss to put on and take off.

JDWalton

the biggest problem is that you need the panhard relocation bracket to make them fit. Though i suppose you could leave that in full time as well, but if you took it on and off everytime, it would be a pain for sure.

I think that you only need the swaybar drop bracket for the 10 inch wheels.
