I have 285/40/17's all around . I am a full bolt on + cam and will be doing heads over the winter. I need something that can hook. This will be for the street only. No track use. I need to be able to take curves.
I have done some research and the only tires I can find in that size are nitto 555r's and the F1's.

Anyone that can give me suggestions would be great.

i liked the General Exclaim UHP tires alot that i had on my 1996 stang for a while. the price is good, but man would she hold a corner, 275/40/17.

i would go 275 40 17s if you want to rotate then you will have a better option of tire to choose from

valid point. i like to be able to rotate. especially if you are undergoing suspension work.

i love the look of the BFG KDW's...i have never owned a pair so not sure how they would work for your street fun...i know that summitomos *sp* dont hook for **** and my michelin pilots are great in the rain but they dont hook for **** either..

The KDW's NT ( new tread) are very nice, but they dont make them in a 285 series.

ive been wondering the same thing. my car is a street car daily driver and i want a tire that will be safe in all weather conditions as well as last longer than a drag radial and still hook almost like a drag radial. so i was thinking of going ahead with the goodyear F1.

I never drive unless it is dry out. I will be pushing 430-450 RWHP this spring. I need something that can handle that amount of power.
