CT5-V Tire questions

[Lpe385]

My 5BW is lowered on Swift springs, I've added a little more power to it and looking at the Micky Thompson ET Street S/S 305/35/19's. I know the sidewall will be taller but anyone have any experience with these tires and do you think they will rub being lowered? Also looking at the Hoosier Track Attack Pro in our factory sizes

I can't speak for the blackwing, but I preferred et street r over et street s on my 520hp NA car before the blackwing, but neither can handle any rain if you are driving on street.

Im at about 735rwhp and hook up just fine on the street with michelin 4S, how much power are you at to need those?

 

[Lpe385]

I’m 800 rwhp and in warm weather 2nd gear is an issue and 3rd gear it still spins. When the temp drops into the high 60’s low 70’s it’s gonna be a real problem.

I've got a new set w just 30 miles on them. I tried them but took em off; I'm at 850WHP and I'm gonna go smaller wheels.

DM me if you want a deal

Sorry for my late reply LF Audio thank you but looking at something different now. Power levels are now up to 863 hp 760 tq on a hub dyno.

Looking at the specs of the Hoosier Track Attack 325/30/19's. It appears our OE 4S the section width is 12.3 and the tread width is 11.1. My car is lowered on Swift springs and the Hoosier Track Attack 325's have a section width of 13 and a tread width of 11.2. Does anyone have any experience with running 325's lowered and no rubbing issues? Anyone have any knowledge if the section width of 13 vs 12.3 will rub.

Thanks in advance

All good, I was unable to unload those tires within a week.

I'm up to 1010 WHP and will likely seek more once I get the triple pump set up, I myself am looking for some proper tires also, the 4S will spin at 90 an hour if I punch it in third.

What could you possibly do with more than 1010whp?? Currently, you have the power of two LT4 engines under the hood!

Go faster?

Questionable since traction will be impossible. Will be a 1 mile racer on a runway in Texas

Huh? They make stickier wider tires if thats the problem. Sooner or later they'll start working on the suspension too to help the bite.

Bragging rights, even the stock BW will land you in prison within a few seconds if you're not careful.

So, what are you trying to get accomplished? I just set aside my Tech Bronze with fresh spec PS4's for a track day or 2 for smiles....

Are you wanting to fit a 325 on the factory wheels, why? Just curious?

I've seen folks on FB state they have without an issue.

Gawd that tire looks like it ate two normal tires for breakfast and could eat another if you got too close.

Any pics of the 315's? Lowered on Eibachs? You can share, bet it looks badass.

Ended up with a set of 305/30/19 Hoosier Track Attack for the rear, hope to have them on end of next week. Will report back how they do with 863rwhp on hub dyno, fingers crossed.
