Just wondering what 60 foot times to expect on the new Nitto's???

Anybody been to the strip recently???


Thanks,

DL,

Did you get a set?

Richard, I cannot answer that question at this time, I may be racing on Jan. 26 @ Silver Dollar Raceway...

I've had them for about a month now but, havent been to the track with them yet being the last month of deer season and all spending too much time in the great outdoors but they hook up great on the street I'm launching a lot better with them expecially when they are warmed up!! I can feel the difference!! So I hope you have as much fun with yours as I'm having with mine and there not as bad in the rain as everybody says they are, havent had any problems with mine at all!!!!

where did you order them form?

Silver Dollar Raceway huh? The resturant we hang out is the Silver Dollar. Thats to funny, its where we meet for street racing!! Have fun, let me know!!

I have neither confirmed or denied I have some.

But I know you can get some from:

800-938-3456 ext 412 ask for Todd, tell him your an NLOC member. $213 Per tire, $450 delivered

Richard, Second race of the NMRA season is at Silver Dollar Raceway, Reynolds, GA.

Hey David.......im planning on coming down to race at Silver Dollar when the NMRA race happens in April...........When are you coming to Nashville dude.........I have gotten alot more toys for the L........you should check them out!!!!!

I ordered mine thru Discount Tire they were like $200.00 each total with mount balance, tax was $230.oo.

Common sence tells me that a short sidewall tire, WIll not help that much with traction. Especially with heavy trucks.
Due to a softer compound rubber, I'm sure it will "hook' Slightly better, but nothing to brag about.

Hey keith,

Coming to nashville on Jan .28 for a few days. Send me your an
E-mail with some numbers to get a hold of you..

I'll be racing at Silver Dollar also.. Cool...I have a few new things myself..

Can I buy some polish for my tips from you when I come up??

I'm not bringing the L, I don't know if I'm going to fly or get a rental car and drive up yet.

Can't wait to see your truck again and ride in it??

The stock short sidewall tires hook just fine. I would love to put a set of NITTO's on my truck, I think it would work just fine.

DL?


U have had ET streets before right? or tried them at least. I would think the Nittos can do as good as them without a stall convertor but will be better on the top end for MPH. I would say 1.7's 60 and 2 or 3 more mph top end!!

Richard,

I have ran a 1.75 & 1.78 on borrowed 26x10.5x16 ET streets from another L owner at my local track.

I hope the Nitto's that I may/may not have at the moment, :o help me run similiar 60" times. I wish Jan. 26 would hurry up and get here.

I hope they work as good or a little better, at least they will be a little more stable at top end MPH's.

I've got a set on and I'm going to the track here in Houston on Sun. I'll post 60' times whatever they may be. I saw a red '01 the first week in Dec. with a set on and with no converter and a 12.5X et truck, the guy had consistant 1.77 60 ft's. I hoping for the same or better. I'll post later.

Paul.
