I have been running nittos for awhile now and it just getting annoying trying to ease out of the hole and/or peddle it. i am a full bolt-on car with a yank 3600 stall converter. Would 16in M/T's be able to handle anything i could throw at them??

why not just get an et street and call it a day.

on an auto car i wouldnt replace an et street (bias ply) for a m/t drag radial. teh 16" m/t radials are plenty for your 7 second car.

why do people ask this all the time...m/t d/r have had many people up on the bumper...enough said tires are just plain awesome and if you cant hook on them its prolly your sus.

There are guys going deep 9's on the 17" ones, so the 16's should do fine.

ive seen a 1.38 60' on 16's and a 3800 irs 6 speed turbo car no 2 step go mid 1.4x

what tire pressure would optimum for these? i read somewhere that they actually like alittle more air pressure is that true??

gator's 99TA

iTrader: (2)

true. 18 psi and if it hooks go up

when i had mine i ran them at 22 and they liked it.

Magnet

iTrader: (36)

did you say go up if it HOOKS? or did you mean if it DOESN'T hook?

daniel6718

iTrader: (36)

no you donjt want to DEAD hook. if it sticks at 18 or so then go up until your 60' clow down then drop 1 psi and go run...this will get you a little wheel spin outa the hole and help you

ever seen the drag racing vids in slomo of top fuel and funny cars they spin for about 15 feet

Magnet

iTrader: (36)

ok i see what ya mean now..originally when he said hook i didn't take it as DEAD hook..

run as much pressure as you can without loosing 60'

Hope to be testing some on my ride as well. Bolt-ons I only hit 1.7x with 245 Nittos, with cam I'd like some 1.6s with the 255 MT DRs.

ls2 bait

iTrader: (11)

ya i wouldnt mind some 1.6's on mt drags

i've always been happy with my nitto drs, both the 16s and the 17s......1.64 on the 17s last fall. i've got a 9" now though, so i'm thinking of throwing some of the m/t drs on it to see what happens. good luck

28" M/T on stock aluminum 16" Z28 wheels here. Won't be running them until next season when I do the cam swap. They're a little over-kill for a bolt-on only car (in my opinion).
