Default What Tire..

I am ordering a set of Prostar 15x3.5 and 15x10 for my TA.. M6 and 3:42 gear Car is N/A no nitrous.. I am undecided as to which rear tire to go with after reading the stickies i am still somewhat confused. 275/50/15 what i need? 325/50/15 looks badass but i am almost positive that its too much tire for my setup. Any help wud be appreciated!

275 works just fine and if you run a drag rad with that m6 it will still take some work to get it to hook right. but they hook here a pic for you


this was spinning the tires on a 5800rpm hit

well with the 3.42 the 275 26 15 will work really good but with the 4.10 you will want 28 and maybe a slick 28 on your m6 setup for the track. and alot of this also weights on wats done to the car as well like cam. cam and heads and so on.

yes a 275/50/15 will work for your setup a 325/50 is way to much for you ...i ran 275/60/15's for a while and was running low 1.5's 60ft with my 6spd IMO 325's are an over kill going high 9's or slower **** there guys going in the 8's on a 275/60 dr so it just depends on your setup
