latest burnout pics..





so wutcha think guys? and btw..its a set of new 295/50 15s that im burning off!!


btw..you guys should try grand am radial g/t's...there awesome for street racing...the new tires i bought..which are the ones used in the burnout..are 295/50/15s..on stock 15x7 wheels..and they freakin rock...when you do a burnout..they get super hot and very sticky...and hook really well..perfect for all you street racers who want to run a stock looking tire but crave awesome traction.

Just out of curiosity, how did you fit a 295 on a 7" wheel? I had 295's on my 8" Welds at one time and they buldged out pretty badly on them.

Do you have any pics of the car from the rear? I'd like to see how wide those tires look. Also what type of intake are you running? Carb? What are the specs on the 406? Those are some great times...but how the hell do you get traction if when you hit it you leave 150ft streaks? I guess it would take a little self control

-peace

Yeah, i'd like to see those pics of the rear and side views of the tires. There is now way I am going to get traction with my car without slicks and no way I am driving with slicks everyday.

It is impossible to fit a 295/50 15 on a 15*7 rim. I have 265/50 r 15s and that is the widest a 7inch wide rim can handle. Anything else would blow off. My friend tried 275 50 15s on his 15*7 and they wouldn't stay on when we put air in them. They would just blow off. Either you have 15*8s or you are BSing.

Never mind!! I AM an idiot. I just talked to a friend of mine at sears and he said It could be done. He also said it was very dangerous! But thats your choice not mine. I couldn't see the pics of your car. Could you email them to me with a pic of the tires and the size.
