im getting a set of mickey thompson et streets for my 92 firebird.My queston is will 26x10.5 set fit??? and if not what what et street size will. I havent even bought the rims set yet.Im just doing some future planing.Also what set of axels would you guys recomend with these tires (got a 3.73 10 bolt) any help is very good

thanks

 

Yes they will fit. but you are going to need to buy rims. At least 8" wide. I think backspacing should be around 4.5-5" to make em fit.

As for axles, I have the Strange Street/Strip axles in my 12-bolt and love em. But, why would you buy axles for a 10 bolt? Unless you are planning to upgrade the axles to get rid of the c-clip retainers because you are running 11's at the track......spend money wiselt somewhere else.

If supported properly with a nice girdle type rear end cover, the 10-bolt will last into the high 12's

 

yes i am planing on getting c-clip eliminators .Do you guys think a 10 bolt with c-clip eliminators and a richmond 3.73 can hold to a built 355, m/t et sreets, and 175 shot off the line??? or am i wasting my time and should go with a after market 12 bolt??How bad would it be without c-clip eliminators???I built the low end of then motor for even more spray then this i just have little information on 10 bolts how much hp/tq can it hold??

 

If you are going to spray that much off the line....do yourself a favor and spend the money on a 12-bolt. Even if you spent the money on a 10-bolt and got it to survive....it would be a matter of time before it grenades with that kind of abuse.

I have the Strange 12-bolt with 33 spline axles and upgraded posi unit....no problems once I got it in the car.

 

Ill have to look in to the Strange 12 bolt heard alot of good things about the Moser one too...




also if i didnt want to spray it right out of the hole what would be the best activatoin switch for a 5 speed car that would be easy on the ten bolt for the time being???Maybe a 3,000-6000 rpm window switch???

thank you for your inputs fastbird
