Hello yall,
I have 17x11 Zr1 rims with 315/35/17 with affordable HTRZ sumitomo tires.

I also have 16x8 z28 rims with 255/50/16 M/T drag radials.

Which tire setup shouldi use on the dyno?


Thanks

the 16's will give you more power due to less rotating mass....

I agree. It my not be much but the power readings will be different. What is the weight difference between the two?

18 to 20 psi on a drag radial. (that seems to work good for me)
