      just running a "general tire" my friend gave me, 245/45/17.

      GBody when the track opens, i'll let ya know how it goes....i'd like to go 9.9999 on these drag radials...

      My buddy has a single turbo '91 Mustang, has gone 1.51 60' and 9.75 @ 145 on the 275/60/15 Hoosier drag radials.

      Should be interesting.

      Looks sweet! I love the fact that they polish the backside of the wheel as well. A lot of the other wheel manufacturers don't do that.
