Thats what I used to use for street tires when I drove a lot, nothing hooked anyhow so why waste 350 on drag radials. Except I used turbo techs @ 50.00 each lol. Check 'em out at the track, car was running 6.90s on slicks/cutout open but I had to try then turbo techs

I bought them from a local tire store, they are (or were) made by general I think, that was like 3 years ago. I think I could have run 11.50s in the 1/4 with them on a real good track, I couldnt floor the thing all the way until 500' out lol.

ive been thinking of getting some SUV tires for my stock 16" rims , 255/65/16R
basically a 29.05" tall, 10.04" wide tire
so my Th400 tranny will rev a little lower

I was thinking about this dunlop, also has a 130mph rating

TondSS how tall are those tires?
