Which tire should i pick for my shelby 2013??

[svt_king_cobra]

Hi,

It is the time to change my shelby 2013 tires, since they can not handle the power, my car puts 780 WRHP and 710 WRTQ.
i have lowered my car 1.25" by using ford racing spring and used BMR adjustable lower control arms.

I do have 3 options and do not know which to pick, options below:

1-Nitto NT05R Drag Radial
2-Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial
3-MICHELIN Pilot Super Sport / MICHELIN PS2


also which size should i go for the rear tires on stock shelby 20x9.5 wheel?

Appreciate your help.

I say go for the MPSS tires, but with your power, I think you will have issues putting it to the ground no matter what you choose

Really NT555R's for DD?

I am super impressed with the PSS, even with the 13-6 kit it still hooks up in 2nd!

Thats what I am running, 700 hp to the wheels ain't no joke. Plus they are better in the rain should you get caught instead of the NT05R's

i do street race no tracks, do you think MPSS will be a good option for my power?

Thats my answer

 

[svt_king_cobra]

i agree with this power only few tire options are available. also i need tires can handle hot weather 120 F

I say go for the MPSS tires, but with your power, I think you will have issues putting it to the ground no matter what you choose

Which size fits my current setup?

 

[Devious_Snake]

when you say street race, digs or rolling?

i don't think there is a chance to get traction with any tire from a dig haha...

the only answer to traction on the street is AWD :beer:

 

[svt_king_cobra]

rolling, most of the time

Get the right offset on wheels, run 315 MPSS and you should be ok, from 40 up lol

 

[svt_king_cobra]

the car has SVTPP wheels 20x9.5 rear does 315 fits on that wheel?

No. MPSS run wide, so it would not be a good fit on that size wheel.

rolling, most of the time

Do you ever drive in the rain?

If not, 305/35/20 Nitto 555R is my suggestion.
