Default What is the fastest you ran 275 40 17 tire

I was just wondering what kind of times you guys have been cuting with a stock tires size. It can be a full slick or a drag radial. Just seeing what is possible.

I would think 10's would be or a 1.4 1.3 60's

pretty sure there's a mustang going 8s or 9s on a 275/17 drag radial. Not sure if it's a 40 or taller but it's definitely hauling the mail.

Ok so it is possible to get into the tens if you are hitting 11.08.

to many variables on your power source. turbo cars get a way with the 17" rim and no side wall. big cubes and supercharger i would go with a meaty tire

Yes, it is very possible with the correct suspension set-up. There have been a few guys make sub 10sec passes on a 275/17 DR.

I've got a buddy who ran a 12.6 in his stock SS on 275/40/17's. I don't remember his 60' though
