Tire Help for Heads-up Manual Transmission Class

[Rich osmond]

Thanks. Aluminum flywheel, single clutch disc 10” min, but we can run a tamer. First gear ~ 3:1, second gear ~2:1. Appreciate the help.

OK. I’m just seeking a little help. Thx

why wouldn't you put a 30x9 bias tire the Stick stocker guys run? i know thats why you are asking what to use, but I would think a 30x9 would give a much better contact patch over a 26x10.

28s are the biggest they can run

I used to run the 28x10.5 Stiff in Renegade. Back then we had to weigh 3000 and made more HP 850 but with a single disk Ram and a adjustable pressure plate I 60 footed 1.25 and ran 9.0’s a DOHC 4.6

I know this isn’t your combo but it’s about as close as you’re going to get here!

Thank you, James. This is very helpful and something I will consider. As you know, I will need to balance clutch slip, wheel speed, and rotating weight, so I will probably need to test with a short tire/gear package, vs a tall one. Thanks again.
