Should I switch to 325 ET Radials
 
I am trying to get ready for the LTx Shootout and I was thinking of going to a bigger (wider) radial. This is a 600+hp nitrous car without a progressive controller for the juice. I am currently on 245/50 ET Radials. I would like to start hitting the t-brake.:D

I just picked up a set and I am fitting them now

I was coming out on the whole shot and a 800TQ spike blowing the tires away on my 27x11.5 hoosiers. I am converting to a MADMAN setup and 325s.

Looks like it is going to be an attack of the blue cars at the shoot out! Hell we barely ever see any and I can count six going to the shoot out :D

See you in the other lane :devil:


BTW The down side is the new tires alone weigh 7Lbs each more then my current wheel and tire combo!

I just switched from a 29.5 - 10.5 inch slick to a 295 65 15 ET drag radial n stock suspension and went 9.07 at 155 on one stage bringing in the NOS with a window switchh. I'll never go back to a slick, the car went straight as an arrow and actually wheel stood the 3rd pass on the spray.

I am having the same problem coming out of the hole. And that is only with the 100 shot. I haven't hit the 200 shot yet (trying to solve a fuel pressure fluctuation). You are right about blue cars. Hopefully we will get to run each other:engarde: Let me know how much it takes to fit the tires.

Scott I am glad you posted, I am also looking for a 9" or 12 bolt. When is a good time to call you?
