We went to the track yesterday and I let my oldest son use my 17x9.5 Race Star wheels with 26.5x11.5x17 MT ET Street bias ply tires on his 2012 3.7 V6 Mustang.

He was able to make three passes on the tires and he lifted the left front wheel (18" GT wheels) on all three passes.

His car has 100% stock suspension. His car is a M6 car. His mods are a JLT CAI, 93R Bama tune. 3.73 gears and a Lethal Performance 2.5" O/R X-pipe.

Below are the vids from the three passes and a still shot from the 2nd pass.

The last run with the Foxbody is my youngest son's car. It runs very well for a stock cammed car that made 292 RWHP.

These runs were also made into about a 15-20 MPH headwind.

Nice run's. That is sweet to pull the tires with stock suspension. I have 659 RWHP and cant get them up LOL.

I know what you mean!! I had some 1.6's with my Procharged '11 GT and still didn't pull the wheels up!!

look like some hard launches and shifts haha looks like you guys had a fun day

He said he launched at 3,500 on the 1st pass and between 4,000 and 4,500 on the last two.

That is the first time he has every ran with any kind of sticky tire.
