And should I run the stockies sitting behind my shed?

I run invos. Great tyre but certainly not a slick.Yes, they will be fine 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91574-dyno-using-street-slicks-or-stock-wheels/#findComment-1576013 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I dont understand why people keep calling them that). I think 18s give you a higher reading...I would run the smallest size but with the best tread (but never been on a dyno yet so NFI really lol) 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91574-dyno-using-street-slicks-or-stock-wheels/#findComment-1576014 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok awesome thanks for clearing that up just didn't want to destroy them on the dyno Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91574-dyno-using-street-slicks-or-stock-wheels/#findComment-1576015 Share on other sites More sharing options...
