    just picked up a set of Mickey ET streets 315/30 /18.

    Think they will grip 450+rwkw?

    Yes -speak to Wiz but the 275 hook up nice with a good burnout, 315 can only be better

    If warmed up correctly and if your suspension is well set up, then yes. 275 is plenty IMO, plenty of 9/10 second XR6 Turbos and mustangs running them.

    yes but the 275 they use are a higher profile ..

    chose these for the street as well as the 888's are dangerous .

    not touching my suspension ,set up for circuit .

    just a once off run to see what it does .
