Thoughts on these front tires

I'm thinking these for the fronts. I will see some street time but the big thing is I can get these mounted for about $35ea compared to paying $130ea for some MT ET fronts.
Now these do weigh 17Lbs compared to 12Lbs on the MT's.
I'm gonna run these anyway and save myself $200 :mrgreen: I'll just buy a bigger NOS kit :twisted:

Just be careful with the speed rating. Sometimes those smaller passenger car tires aren't rated for any decent constant speeds. Shouldn't really be a problem, though. People ran stock VW Bug tires for fronts for years.

Speed shouldn't be a problem here..just 1/8th mile track. Bad news is those tires have been sold out (no more in country). trying to find something equivalent now

thanks

I run skinny *ss Eco car tires up front. cheap as hell and give me no grief. No clue how fast ive had them, but right around 100 multiple times with no issues

Now I just have to get the car ready
