    285/60/17 falken?

    Well upon learning that with out a retune i cant run a set of D.R.s on my truck ive been searching for a tire that looks like it would hook decently on the track and this is what i found
    http://www.summitracing.com/parts/FAL-28633/
    They seem to have a pretty low utqg which is what from my understanding means the lower the nember the less life but better traction, and along with them being 285 wide im thinkin they have got to out perform my 275/55/20 bridgestones with a 700 utqg, plus they will be much lighter than the 20s
    yalls opinnions?

    Why is it that you need to retune for the DR's?
