As far as i'm concerned there is no other tire than the pro MT 275 or the MT 315.

Im goin out sunday to make a few hits w the truck on some new 275 MT pros.
I'm excited to see how they work on my junk.

keep us posted on how it does and how you like them

This. The ones who refuse to use these are simply behind the times. The old style radials are complete garbage as compared to these new pro tires

1st pass on the radials...it started to hook just like soups initial outing...then spin like its on ice.
I got the front struts full loose...rear single adj shocks on 10 of 14. 18.5 lbs tire pressure and 4000 chip. Convertor flashes to 6000.
Leafspring and caltrac setup.
Any advice from you fellas while im still at the track?

double post...

loosen the rear shocks.  single adjustable adjust the extension.  you want it to extend.  and move the caltracs up a hole on front.  for your ride I would have it all the way up. and if you have any power taken out throw it all back in.

^^^^this you want it to move and give it all you can , probably let a little air out also ....

Is it knocking the tires off before or after 60'?

We loosened the rear shocks and lowered the tires to 17lbs. It hooked great and went 1.42 60ft. Thats a person best to date by .10!
Im sold on the radials now!
3rd and final pass I lowered the leave to 3000 just to see how it responded and it went 1.48 60'.
Next time out im hittin it w 5000 and lookin for a 1.3 somethin 60ft.
Got some solid info now to baseline from. Really happy w the results today w my heavy ol street truck!

Nice, very

We spend many hours looking for something new, when you get on to something and are finding success it brings back any excitement that may have floundered. Well done keep us posted.

Good job

I have to stay on the phone always. Email, forums, & calls. Thats how you get and keep customers. Remember I feed my family doing this it's not just a hobby.

Plus, we broke a ring gear in X car last night and just lost in quarters in mx235. Now it's time to load up and get the heck out of here.

I'm late to the party as usual.....

is it possible to hit the pros too hard? if so, what would the symptoms of that be? by no means do I think that's what I'm doing. I'm just wanting to know how much harder I can hit them then I am now?

you're hitting them too hard when you smoke them before you move. other than that keep hitting them harder.
