315/35/17 MT Street Radial installed! Got my new shoes put on today. Man do these things hook like mad. I'm coming off of Nitto DR's. The Nitto's dont even come close to these! From about a 30mph roll in first it doesnt spin a tire, and the 1-2 shift is just a slight chirp. Very very impressed with these tires. Also the fit real nice on my TTII's, which are 11 inchers. Had to do a good bit of trimming to get them on there without scrubbing, but its still real close, maybe a half inch or so on each side. I'll get some pics up tomorrow.

Be ready to replace them often. I only went to the track about 3-4 times and maybe 15 runs and driving to and from the track and one week with them on the street and they're already down to the tread wear bar. I'm running 255/50/16's on a spare set of rims. They hook too good. They cause my clutch(stock) to heat up and slip when I'm racing now!
