new tire for the track

[Redbowties88]

my falkens are only rated to 2600ish IIRC... so far no trouble..

Naw your right too. I meant in those manufs, they have a 55 thats rated higher and the 50 is rated for SUV type vehicles (lower load rating). They both have a load rating, but they only offer the higher load rating in the 55 series and the lower rating in thee 50 series. There is a few other "street tread" design that are like this as well. Is because a 50 series is common on a 20" on a SUV, but a 55 series is more common on a pickup with a 20" wheel.

oh haha i got ya mike. that makes mroe sense now

any thoughts on the tire yet? want to get something before the weekend and these seem to be in my price range.

on dot suitcase scales my truck weighs less than 2k per corner :thumb:

and especially when i lighten the ol girl up for the track i am hoping to be under 6400.

i am not dumb enough to try and haul a load or big trailer with these tires. believe me i have more sense than that

That's what I've been wondering. I'm looking at the Proxes st II or the general uhp in this size for a set of PYO's. Just wondering how they'd do everyday unloaded driving. Truck only weighs 7k now.

any update on these tires?

 

[dmaxfireman]

did my homework and the proxes s/t 2 is 8lbs lighter per tire than the grabber uhp's so i ordered them instead... will update you guys when i put them on

put them on outlaw 2's from american racing... since they were advertised 21lbs

 

[Redbowties88]

outlaw 2's in what size?

 

[dmaxfireman]

16x8

 

[Builtlngbd]

O. The ubp update I do run them and like I said I can cut a 1.67 60ft. And ran 11.30@123...... I think that's pretty good

 

[Redbowties88]

10-4 kyle... i think im going to get another set of rims with some proxies on them and then throw some slicks on the PYO's.... ill probably go 18 though to broaden my tire options

 

[dmaxfireman]

slicks are gonna be too wide for the pyo's IMO

 

[Redbowties88]

i ran 315's on them for a while and never had a problem.... i dunno

OK I tried to find some for myself but toyo's site only list a 265/70 and a 275/60. Did you go with a different size than originally planned ?

 

[calabria69]

So what's the 60 series then?? I was going to run a 325/60r/20, for my next tire, hancook a/t...

I got a set of the old style proxes 265/70/16 on ebay a couple weeks ago, the guy I got them from has more sets listed on there.

 

[dmaxfireman]

265/70/16

 

[paint94979]

any update on the ST II's?

 

[xcablb7]

i have 285/60/17 falkens and there only rated at 2600 iirc right around there anyway, just don't tow heavy with them, they are all p rated c load range tires

What's his sellers name ?

any update on the ST II's?

I send Toyo an Email from their site probably once a month or a little longer asking when they'll produce the STII in a 275/70-16 and state everytime that it was a "Very popular size in the ST we used to buy."
