    Can I fit a 345/50-14 tire on a stock 71 duster?

    I doubt it I have 275/60/15's nitto dr on my demon with the springs moved in 3/4" and its close. Unless you do the stink bug look and have reverse offset rims maybe

    Need tire advice: drag radials

    Nitto, good for 10 to 15k to boot. I would never run a car with any real power on the street again without DR's!

    Opinions on the Nitto NT555R

    Guess he would need some 18" rims to get something wide in that tire.

    Opinions on the Nitto NT555R

    Agree... I have them on my very low 12 second street car. You should expect 10 to 15k out of them. They hook great my car does a 1.66 60' with it's 4,400 stall.

    Post Your - Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial 275/60/15

    If it's a street car that will be used often go with the nitto drag radials. Most guys are getting 10 to 15k miles on them and they are ok in rain. I run them with about 400hp and a 4,400 stall, my car does a 1.66 60' and they dead hook on the street for me. No rocks getting thrown on my...

    Black steelies and drag radial look?

    I agree, if your going old school look on the rear you have to go old school rims on the front.

    Are AFFORDABLE bias ply E60-15 or F60-15 tires made?

    The cost comes from the very short runs. I work in the rubber industry.

    What 15" tires are you using?

    Nitto drag radials. I have about 3k miles on them and they look like they will go another 10k at least. My old bfgs were bald in 10k and even when new would not hook at all. These Nittos spin maybe once or twice before hooking, I'm around 400hp and 4,400 stall. I'm a little different , I'd...

    275/50/15 Nitto NT555R no tubs or rubs

    That's why I went with Nitto, seems most were getting 10 to 20k out of them. They don't hook as well as M/T or other drag radials but they will go longer than 3k !! I don't have hi HP so the Nittos work great! These tires also hold air great, mine have not lost any Psi since spring.

    275/50/15 Nitto NT555R no tubs or rubs

    Lot of tire company's are not making much in 14" size . That's the main reason to go to 15's

    275/50/15 Nitto NT555R no tubs or rubs

    Drag radial info needed

    Ok I usually will bring it up to 2,500 to 3k, then mash the pedal to the floor. I run a mechanical 6 pack with about 1,100 cfm. I get a few revolution of spin in the tire but it hooks hard with no bog and I'm gone!!!

    Drag radial info needed

    Night and day, a /6 duster could pull a few car lengths on me if I nailed it to the floor! I do have a 4,400rpm dynamic converter in it.

    Drag radial info needed

    So how did it do? i don't think the nittos are best for that HP they last a lot longer than the M/T etc.. they are great on my demon with about 400 hp, on the street.

    Traction tip for Goodyear Polylgas GT user

    I would just be worried about the psi build up as the tire heats up, wouldn't want a blow out at high speed!

    Don't think you will find anything exact that is new. This is as close as you might find but they look like pep boy nuts that just have been touched with a counter sink bit. http://www.beaparts.com/item_detail.aspx?id=1343

    Demon Dog Dish

    Go for it if your going for the stock look, problem is 14" Rims are tough now to get decent tires if your performance minded.
