Default Phoenix slicks

Anyone run these on a stickshift. I'm curious to find out. We will be running my Dads 67 camaro this year and the 28.5 x 9 x 15 looks like the only thing that will fit under it without cutting the quarters. I have always ran the Mickey Thompson's stiff sidewall ,but unfotunatley the size we need is not there. Lmk thanks.

Tim,
Send BFXJason a PM over on the UMTR forum. Jason works for M/T and is a straight shooter. If something is different or got changed he would be the one to ask.

If you buy a Phoenix tire check the oil in your air compressor regularly and don't leave it in the trailer unattended over 3 days they will be flat.......love to race them......hate to own them.......who wants a tire that will not hold air

Bias tires, yes they will leak, even M/T bias leaked, the Radial's never leaked.

Extra measures have been taken this past year to limit the air leakage when running Phoenix Tires tubeless with very good success. All of last year production and from now on will include this extra measure.

Thanks

Thats good to know as i was thinking of trying a set of those on my stock wheelwell 69. i guess we have to go with the hoosier as they seem to be the only one that offers a true 29" tire but even the 29x11.5 street pros i was runing started coming at 93-94 so i went to their 10x29 slick that was a hair shorter.
