They've been really solid so far and they dead hooked a 700 rwtq hit of the nitrous from a 30 punch one night.

Not sure to be honest. I've got about 4k on them and they still have decent tread left. Haven't taken them to the track yet though as the nearest track is still very far

Yeah mine had that sticker too. I think they weigh around 15 lbs. each. I read it somewhere on SVT forum and the 17x4.5 and 15x10 weigh almost the same. I will get some weights tonight if I remember.
You can also weigh yourself, then pick up the wheel and weigh again

Can someone educate me as to what the difference is between bias ply or radials? and what is better for a street/strip car? I need to make up my mind and buy me 17" front runners for my Darkstars which are screaming to be thrown on the car! By the way, I will be spraying bout 200-225 shot on this car through a 408!
