blurtoyou Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Got some new tires. They are MT ET street's. Go thru the water box or go around?:confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 ET streets or ET street radials, either way I'd think you'd want to roll through the water box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickey4271647545519 Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Try either or, and see what works better for ya. Tha'ts really only going to be the best way to find out which works better with your combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blurtoyou Posted July 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 ET streets or ET street radials, either way I'd think you'd want to roll through the water box. they are radials. No problem with water in the tread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 they are radials. No problem with water in the tread? I've never had an issue, I always roll through the water with mine. My burnout procedure consists of rolling straight through the water, stopping, getting smoke rolling, and letting off the brakes so it keeps spinning until I'm away from the burnout box, but thats just what works for me.

Cordell Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 I also hear a lot of people running what I think is too low of pressure in these, I've made my best passes with 20-22psi in mine. Many people run less then this, but it doesn't work for me, I have pics of mine starting to wrinkle the sidewall at 20psi cutting 1.47 60' times. Obviously everybody and every car is different, it's just my opinion that you don't need to run these with low pressures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like i need to try some new things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 I ran them @18psi, rolled through the box into the dry, did a 3-4sec quick burnout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillJoy Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 When I had the 1.6 60's in the Marauder, I ran 18psi, rolled into the Water Box, burnout until good smoke, and rode the burnout out of the water box. :thumbup: KillJoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillbot Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 I usually roll around and back in but mainly to keep water off the fronts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTHER91 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 no one should ever do a burn out in the water box rolling through on them is fine ( i do what gill bot does) and just keep playing with your tire pressure till you dont go any faster ..only use what people tell you as a starting point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do a burnout in the box you should expect water to be flung on the inner fender well and then drip on the tire once out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've run the 275/60/15's for years and they work great around 15psi. You have to figure out what works best for yur car though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAWDAD Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 I found out that 14psi was to low. Tire was rolling over and 60' was shit. Now I need to try and work upwards. So far my best 60' was at 16psi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
