Also does anyone know if I could fit a pair of 265 40 18 's on the rear of my stock 18 x 8 rims or should I stick with the 245 40 18 ?Also what is your choice for better traction? Not really interestind in cornering ability, lifespan or wet conditions.cheers for any infopic of tyre I'm interested in...

They will also eat your trailshaft and diff bushes...Look for a road 'semi-slick' like the NT05's, they will hold your ~290rwkw easily...

Not really interestind in cornering ability, lifespan or wet conditions.cheers for any info You've found your tire then, also be prepared to lay a 2nd of 3rd gear burnout of every few minutes too keep them warm and gripping. They are street legal slicks not street tires. Nittos are a much better option Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/77276-are-mickey-thompson-et-streets-legal-in-nsw/#findComment-1147824 Share on other sites More sharing options...
