I blew up this picture so you can all see how the Hoosier 28x10-16 slicks hook when you leave the starting line.

I love how you can see how the sidewall wrinkles, also check out how the exhaust tips torqe down away from the ground effects.

 

Nice Don can almost see day light under those front tires in the sig pic .

 

Nice blowup! Just curious, should the wrinkle go all the way to the tire bead. Kinda' looks scary to me.

 

That looks sweet! Thats one hellofa beast ya got Don.

Sorry, I don't know how to do a close-up.

Here's another angle.

Wow those have to be the biggest slicks i have seen yet on a lightning what size are they?

 

rdy2rac I blew up the pic for you, it was the best I could do with the origional pic.



Vin is right those are some big slicks, are they the 30 inch hoosiers for the 15 inch wheels. Man them be big.

 

Thanks guys.

They are 32/14.00/15's on 15x12 bogarts.

I didn't like them at first, but I love the way they look on the truck. Just looks that much meaner.

 

yeah what my wife said they are 32-14.00-15 but un fortunatly they kill the top end mph because of the width and plus i need to go w/ a 4:56 gear ratio to accomidate the size i don't drive it on the street much but i think that would just murder the f1's i'm trying to talk my lovely wife into letting me buy a set of 29.5x12x15's

 

Are you runing wide open..... I dont see any tip's comeing out of that bodtKit...?

 

Hey Don I did not see any bead locks or screws in the wheels do you not have a problem spinning the tires on the rims. My Hoosiers moved about 1" to 1-1/2" on the wheels every pass. I am going to screw them to the rims should help out.

 

Those are some nice meats!

 

Awesome Launch Don, that's one badass 11 sec L you got there.

 

Great pic!! Do you remember what tire pressure you had in them at the time. I just got mine and will be taking them to the track shortly. I was going to start with 16lbs of pressure and then maybe go down to 13 lbs. Thanks

 

I was runing 17psi and cutting 1.63 to 1.64 60 foot times. It was the first time running those tires so I just kept them at 17 psi.

I may try to lower it some, but with those 60 foot times, I wouldn't go much lower.
