Nitto 275 50 15 on stock T wheel

[87BlacklimiTed]

Anybody running Nitto Drag radial 275 50 15 on stock T wheels. I am hoping to see a picture of what this looks like. These tires like 8" wide wheels, but trying to keep that stock look. Any info or pictures would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Mick

no pics, but I have them on my 85's Alum rims and they look decent, but a lil fat, and don't rub with the alum drums.

The nittos are a tad narrower than the BFGDR 275/50's and I've been through 3 sets of those. You MAY get some frame rubbing in hard corners and the 25.7" tall nittos are a little short for low 12 second and faster cars, otherwise they fit, look and work fine.

I've never raced at the track.

I don't have that many mods, so I don't get much tire squeak. They grab really well for me. I only run about 24-26 pounds pressure.

This is my second set and I would get them again. I got them from Discount Tire/American Tire

these are the same size Melissa ran on her WE-4....1.8 average....1.7s every now an then if the track was hookin....tires are a little big for the stock rims but they did work

I hear Melissa's car is undergoing some changes I wonder where the motor for TTA might be going?????????????? I am sure I will find out on one of the Wed. day rentals @ NED!!!!! I see you changed your signature to recognize that ol' Ford.
