MT Street radials seem to be working out so far. First time to the track on the MT street radials. I run a 325/50/15 this pass was at 16.5 PSI on a 175 shot in a full weight car. Nothing removed except for the wheels. And the cage makes up for that weight diff.
I was happy. This is a cam only 224 cam car on the hose.
60'--------1.4906
330'-------4.3605
1/8 ET-----6.7539
1/8MPH----104.07
1000'ET----8.6714
1000MPH---117.74
Sorry no 1/4 time I live in Arkansas and we are to cheap to build a full track.
Here is a pic of my second run. Only turned a 1.68 60' here because as soon as it hooked and went the tires let go. They were about 20 psi on that run.
Not much air there to speak of but a full weight car and radials I cant complain.

Thats a 10.5 run at least. Here is my pass on 275/60/15 MT Radials.
---- Mine Tim's
60' - 1.59 1.49
330- 4.40 4.36
1/8 - 6.79 6.75
mph- 102.1 104.0
1000-8.889 8.671
1/4- 10.65
mph- 125.83
As you can see he had me by 2 mph @ the 1/8 and .2 @ the 1000'. I can see a 10.4 pass.

These tires hook. I pulled a best of 1.57 and ran some 1.60's after on a 255/55/16 at 18 psi. And no f-ing rear end float like ET Streets and Nittos don't even compare. Definitely worth it.

10" wheel with 7.5" BS. running a small spacer, and yep they are prostars.
Yea I had to "make some room" on the inner fenderwell. I had to move the front of the inner fender well about 1-1.5" in. Nothing to dramatic IMO. It took all of about 5 min. And no cutting was needed, I have adjustable LCA and after the I centered the wheel in the wheel well they dont rub front or back at all.
