  • 275/60 question

    Anybody started using anything other than a m/t radial. I need a new set and was keeping my options open. Word on the street is the goodyear tire aint no joke.

    I too have heard they're good but I haven't seen anyone do a comparison.

    I'd go with what I know (m/t) but I'm a broke dick!

      Stick with the M/t. I want to try the Hoosier though.

        Isn't the GY tire a little bit cheaper? I thought it was. I think it is lighter too and suppost to hook just as good if not better then the MT

          For a track only drag radial, Hoosier is on top with Goodyear holding its own. M/T is just a touch below the two.

          I ran a goodyear for a little last year, but my suspension wasn't up to snuff. I got a 1.42 out of them at one point. Was only running the same sixty foot with a 28x10.5 tire until I replaced my bushings and adjusted things. Now its going 1.38 on motor on 28x10.5. 1.34 on the gas. I wouldn't hesitate to use any of the 3 tires as they all 3 work well.

              He can't run the hoosiers in Truestreet. I would stick with the M/T, it was hit or miss on my car with the Goodyears. But some guys in other parts of the country are hauling ass with them.

                        You could be right but I didn't think the tire was the weak point in extreme. Them fuckers are flying. We are gonna have our hands full.
