no traction please help mustang ripped me

the 555r is a totally different tire than the 404...the 555r is a drag radial, made for dry traction. they blow the 404 out of the water.

or you can go to the mickey thompson drag radial which is what im using next.

no need for caltracs unless you start getting wheel hop problems.

if you really want some awesome street traction put on some 16" wheels and run a 28x10.5 mickey thompson et street.

Well said Stew. Blownwhite03--listen to this guy. He knows what he's talking about.

You might also wanna consider getting a 2.8 pulley. That would make things WAAAAAY more interesting... :burnrub:

Fixed. :lol:

haha I was behind this guy when he street raced the mustang. It was nuts. The truck left tons of rubber down. I went for a ride in that stang and it pulls pretty good.

He just got it dyno tuned and its putting down 300 hp and tq.

hey william were all getting together again saturday night. You should roll out.
