I'm pretty sure that Rocket Industries stocks Mickey Thompson tyres.

Didn't realise that they're only $250 though :D

I don't know why, but I always had the impression that they were up around the $400 mark (comparable with the BFG drag radials). If they're only $250 a pop, then that's very good bang for buck as you'll easily cut tenths off your time using them compared to average street rubber.

the standard sizes....we use 255x50x16....but they make a 235 as well as varoius other sizes

this is a special DiRTgarage price

One off special price, or always available price??? :D

I've got a set of BFG drag radials for the moment, but may be interested in buying the MT's and keeping them for when the BFG's are finished. Without doing any proper research, it sounds like a bargain to me :D

yeah we dont make one cent on these....just like to pass on the good deals to other sau'ers....these tyres are now used by Willall Racing as they have proved their worth

the first comment was from Theo....which i now know was b/s

their last two fastest times were run on these

I think theo might be regretting his deal with federal so he is slandering M/T SDR's

sell the BFG's and get some ET Street's as they are a far better tyre... i could never get the 200 off the line, even at 5psi boost with the BFG's, now it leaves the line fairly well with 20psi boost in it as we are now using the ET Street's :D I havent really played about with pressures yet either and was using the ET's with 20psi in them at the last TNT

Silv,

Find a set of stock 300ZX rims and get the 255/50R16's. I'm pretty sure they'd fit on a 32 (perhaps someone can confirm?). I'm running the same size tyre and rim on my 33 and it fits fine.

ido09s,

What 60' have you run on the M/T's?

I've done a few 1.7's on the BFG's which I thought was fairly good. If you reckon the M/T's are better, then I'll definately be keen to get a set and see how they go once I do my turbo upgrade (which will be in time for the next drag day :D )

ive done a 1.51 60' time on M/T SDR's with an almost laughable burnout.....they are the SHIZNIT!

    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
    • Probably a smart choice to buy one vs build, purely for the motivation part as you said! Imagine the metal dust everywhere from grinding all the steel to build one. Ha ha ha!   Also, post a photo of your garage.   Mine is below, this is where I've been cleaning and have already half filled a caged 6*4 trailer. And this is after my cleaning expedition mentioned previously... The middle normally has a car in it, but I'm dumping things in the middle as I sort through them. And poor skyline was dusty and has had the lightest few drops of rain and now it looks atrocious and needs to be dragged back out and washed thoroughly! And yes to the right is technically another bay, you really can only see 2 bays out of 3 in this picture.
