410s... what tire now?
i have 410s now on the 6sp, and was wondering what the best tire would be? i currently am running 275 40r 17s Nitto NT555r Radials
is this ok? im not too familiar with the way tire size and gear ratio works, hence the question

i would stay with the same size tire. If you go with a taller tire like 28" tall tire which u dont need right now, it will lower ur gear ratio which would bring the 4.10's down around a 3.73. i would choice a mickey thompson radial over the nittos but the nitto's will work fine for now. Just remember ur sitting behind a 10 bolt "beware"!! The car should be a new monster with those 4.10's

haha thx guys. and yea i would get some mickey thompson Radials, but i DD the car, so the Nittos already only last like 12-15k miles. id be lucky to get 5-7k outa the MT's. and yes, it totaly kicks from a stop/low roll. its def not a highway car anymore. I hit 6th gear for the first time ina race the other day against some s/c mustang lol
