What is the rim width? 255's aren't much for v8 power. 275 and up is required for street tires to have a chance of hooking.


depends on compound and surface
I run 15x9 et streets and they hook insane

Also depends on how tall the tire is

This thing is meant to turn. Its not a drag car so it needs a shorter stiffer sidewall. When I said street tires I wasn't talking about drag radials.

245-40, and 255-35 squared set up are the normal sizes for those wanting some more meat. Anything more, you need a lil work done.
