Can't go wrong with a 4457 Goodyear.

That was the M/T 3066R 30x9 radial. 110 runs like clockwork. Been to 116 before (1.40 60' on cords), but obviously they're hit and miss on cords.

M/T released the Pro Bracket Radial this year. They're heavier, but they have a lot more meat on them, and they're still fast. Matt Obertanec won everything under the sun this year in a mid 10-sec AMC Spirit running their 28x10.5" PBR, and it is a ridiculous ticket-printing machine. (been on the wrong side of him myself a couple times this year!) He put 300 runs on a set before taking them off. I'm looking into the 29.5x10.5 M/T Pro Bracket Radial for the Volare. I think it'll LOVE them.

Well I need a set of tires right now. I want 4457 Goodyears, but I M concerned about service in Division Two since Competition Tires lost the Goodyear deal and closed. Does anybody have any insight into how we can get tires?

I always call Chris Barker, but there are many other dealers that would love your business.

Sorry Mr. Beard. I don't know why I thought you had Hoosiers on that car! Jim

Nope! Very first set of slicks as a teenager were Mickeys, and I never looked back.

Are the radials good on the high HP cars? like GT/AA ?any gain or just life span? Heavy 3610 lb with 810 plus HP.

We run the standard 10.5 tire on our white CJ SS that weighs over 3500 with me in it and have had great success with them. Short burnout and hooks no matter what.

IS there an ET Advantage using the Radial over the Bias Ply?

Two tenths with my car. Lights are much faster too.
