Thumbs up New Toyo TQ 315's (pics)

just picked up some toyo drag radials for 350$. guy had them on a 06 mustang gt that he onlyt owned for 4 days which supposedly his 480th car only have 100-200 miles on them and i cant wait to get them on. seeing as my 285 nittos rubbed a little im guessing ill have to bfh a bit. getting them mounted within the next couple days. the old nitto 555rs are 285/35/18 the toyos are 315/35. anybody have any experience with them?

I've been running a 315/35/17 Toyo TQ on my car for about six months now.
Not exactly sure how the compound vs tread life has compared to Mickey's, BFG's, or Nitto's yet but I like them. IMO they're stickier then my Nitto 555Rs.

It's all about wheel offset and how centered your rear is.

yeah i have c5z06 wheels too and ive heard that the offset gives problems with wider tires. i beat the living **** out of my fenderwells and put the tires on, i can fit my fingers between the tire and the nearest part of the bumpstop.

drove it tonight, when i take a right turn faster than 10mph it makes a ticking noise by the left tire. if it was rubbing im sure it wouldnt be making that noise, there wasnt any marks on the tire. it sounds like a piece of plastic is catching on something but i dont know what it could be..
