Any one on here have a set of 305/50/20 tires that they aren't using anymore? We are trying to find a set by Monday.

Aaron, I bought mine from Kal Tire, the falken stz 04. They seem to be a pretty good tire, I was one of the few that could get traction on the dyno at sub performance (a mustang dyno) and that was at over 600 hp.... seem to hook up not too bad on the track too

And they are cheap too,, I think I paid under 200 a tire

Fun isn't it What's even more fun is when you get to the last bolt on the last round and the bolt pops the thread in the block. Had that pleasurable experience with VT's freightliner more than once.Pull 'em all out and start all over again after helicoiling the block.

Thanks Kevin Ill give them a call and see what they have. I might even try running our slicks on the dyno they are too small for racing but they should hook up on the dyno.

Thanks for the info though.

Hi all!

Was there a signup sheet anywhere for the dyno? I'd really like to baseline this truck if there's still room.

For sure. we don[t actually have a sheet running as to speak, but bring it there'll be room. it's $90 per truck fully catered. At AFI performance in Edmonton on Sat. Nov 10th.


I suppose we should have an actual count......... chime it I'll start a running tally.


I'm IN.

Im in too.... I sent them an email a few days ago, inquiring about getting some dyno time a day or so before to get some fine tuning done,,, but no response from them,, if you happen to be going by there could you ask them if that would be a possibility?


Thanks

Kevin
