Tires for the track

[hawkeye93]

I ordered the 103Y version.  My car is my DD, and I spend less than 1% of my time at the track, so I decided that the better reviews, coupled with potentially better fuel economy (stiffer tires should roll better, no?) is worth the extra few bucks.  I can always play with tire pressure at the track for better traction.

I have those BFG's on my 07 Mustang GT in 255/45R17 size. They seem to be loud, much louder than what I'd expect. Great hydroplaning resistance as I was able to plow through heavily flooded roads and lightly flooded roads.

On the SHO with 1.8 60' times, my ~30k mile worn out RS-As kind of chirp off the line and that's all she wrote. I've seen timeslips from SHO's with drag radials and much stickier tires and they are pulling 1.7 60' times, maybe maybe 1.6 at best.
