Wheel tire HEAD BANG!!

[derricksmustang]

Ive been banging my head on the computer screen for a few months now.. Im some what happy with the M/T 305/35 20's all though they dont do as good of a job as I thought they would with the name Micky thompson on them they serve their purpose. Now here is my thing im on full BMR suspension I want a rim and tire that is close to 27" tall and look some what factory here is what im looking at

AMR GT500 replicas in 18-10 will a M&H 325/30/18 fit or the 275/40 18 be enough tire for 600hp

Thanks guys

The 20" MT's hook hard on a 10.5" rim at 15psi...

I have a set of M&H 325/40/18's... They run narrow & look best on a 10.5 to 11" rim, but you could probably get by with a 10" rim.

The M&H's are narrower then my 315 NT05's

Sounds like you have been through your fair share of tires.. it's hard finding a 27+ tall tire any way you spin it, it's about 1000 for rear tires and wheels and not go with a small diameter wheel

What 20" rims do you have right now?

I've got 2011 SVT GT500 20 9.5 they have street comps on them street tires.... I want a set of weekend/drag wheels that look stock that's why I was looking at the AMR wheels 18-10 and thinking of the 325/40 18 but didn't know if they would clear. I'm lowered with BMR springs. I was also thinking BIGS & LITTLE'S but just don't want to be switching all the time.

Just roll on the bigs and littles all the time. Big pimpin'!!

Your from Michigan... Drop your rear rims off at Weldcraft wheels & have them widened to 10.5"... Then run the 20" MT's or Nitto NT05r's.

I have 18's right now, but I think 19's or 20's look better with our big wheel well... MT is coming out with a 305/40/18 (27.5") when they switch over to the new SS line, but they won't be out till June...

The 305/35/20 nt555R is what I am running right now and these are a good DR for daily driving, not as sticky as the nt05R but it will last a bit longer. Definitely sticky compared to a street tire. You might want a wider rim though.

I might wait for the 305/40 18... then I can just buy the 18-10's from A/M. I put about 200 miles a week on my car so DD a drag radial would not last long. Scott have you tried the 325/40 18 M&H do they look good they are a 28" tall tire right?

I have a pair in my possession, I'm hoping to get mounted soon. I'll find out if they hook next weekend... I like a 28" to 28.5" tall tire. MT makes a 305/45/18 that hooks good. My 11" rims are a little too wide for that tire, but they fit great on a 10" rim
