I drive on mine with no problems. If it rains don't go over 25-30 mph though, it gets exciting if you do. Also, don't downshift in the rain if you have an m6, that is even more exciting. |
I have a pair and drive them on the street sometimes. In just city driving (~35MPH) there's no problem. In fact, on a nice smooth highway at 60 MPH, they also seem OK for a short jaunt, however I made the "mistake" of being lazy one day and driving down to the track on them (over an hour on the highway) and they were downright scary at some points. The back end would move around quite a bit, especially if the surface was grooved or less than perfect. Being a non-radial and not having a stiff sidewall, I figured they would wiggle a little, but damn it was enough to make me grip the wheel at 10 and 2 and break out in a sweat. Felt like the back end was sloshing around. :eek2: In short, I do not recommend driving them on the highway. :judge: |
I went threw 2 sets with mostly street driving, they where fine on the street. only thing i would be carefull of is the Bogarts on the street, they are not made for it, they can crack or break. other then that and rain, i wouldnt worry about it |
I just got Bogarts with 26x11.5x15 QTP. I have driven them 200 mile to and from the track with no problem. On the street I run 20 psi and at the track 13 to 15 psi. I only have a few runs on them (best 1.73 60') still trying to dial-in the set-up. |
i run 28psi in my ET Streets on the street and have run that on the highway to and from the track (93 miles away) without a hicup |
I drive my Impala SS to the track, on my 27x11.5x15 QTP's. No problems, I also run 25 psi, and hook great with it. I'm awaiting my new 26 '' QTP's and Bogarts for the Camaro. Soon to arrive! |
