So because you read it in an ad?

I got input from BMR last year about what they recommended. I have their trailing arms and lockout kit, but have not yet installed. For me its been a dilemma, as I did not want to go with MT Street R bias ply due to the diameter. I wanted a DR would was 26" to help with effective gearing and also not create a too big a differential front/back. I went with the same wheels as the OP, but with MT Street R 275/40/17. I really wish MT offered those in a bias ply, as it would be better for an M6 car.

Incidentally, I wasn't trying to criticize you when I ask if you had some actual evidence of cradle lockouts causing a problem or were hypothesizing.

M&h makes a bias ply in a 26" but i have a 10.5" wheel. Figured it would have stretched it out alot. Ill be going to a 15" conversion over the winter so ill have plenty of choices to pick from for a 26". No turning back now!

Yep, those M&H need narrow rims, and would not work on my 10.5". The 15" conversion will open up the world for you in tire choices.

That's a good 60.

Questions:

Are you stock?

What kind of times have you put down without spraying?

What is this bog i am hearing about?

Ported stock im/tb
Smg e85
Racestar drag pack 18x5/17x10.5 with mt et street r bias plys
Speed engineering 1 7/8ths headers and x pipe with stock npp
Nitrous outlet kit
Rick clarke tune

N/a ive ran 11.84@120 with a 1.7 60 ft in 6500 da. Bolting on a msd/95mm tb so hoping to improve to 11.50s with a little better 60 ft as well. The DA sucks here.

When you launch without bog being fixed it will close throttle and cut timing which kills your 60 ft.

@CesarT / @Twoblindsheep.

I put new Mickeys on and tried launching at 3K and the car still bogged on the street i'd imagine that it would be worse at the track... Scared at launching higher.

Do you guys burn clutch when launching or what?
