![]() Nittos are the best street/strip tires. They give you lots of grip when you need it, and help keep you from sliding into the guy infront of you at a light. I have 245-40-17's on my stang all the way around and they rub just a little bit at the extreams in the front. I have heard of people putting 315's in the rear without problem, but I don't know if they had to modify anything (exhaust, fuel tank)... I kept the same size tire on all four rims so I can rotate them when necessary.
Your tired are warn more in the middle because of air pressure. (too much, too little) Keep it between 30 and 35 and you should be fine. (30-35 is what most tires specs ask for) |

![]() Funny thing about the tires being cupped now, also noticing the tread being warn more on the center.... I usually kept my tires at about 32 psi...checking it every couple days...Odd to me i guess..

![]() Dunlops are ok. They just didn't wear all that great. Course, what can you expect from a high performance soft tire? Anyway, I'm running some Yokohama AVS ES100's. Haven't had 'em long, but the traction is good so far. Great price, too.
