O/T Slick question November 5 2008 at 12:09 PM		(Login Bad427stang) Members


What do you guys think of a 29x9.5 slick behind my car? A little taller than I planned, but might take a little shock out of a leaf spring car, and the 9.5 should fit nice underneath I have a good deal on a pair. My first gear ratio is 2.87 with a 3.70 rear and 1st is short, but not horrible with 27.5 tall street tires --------------------------------- - 70 Fastback Mustang, 489 cid FE, TKO-600 5 speed, 3.70 9 inch - 71 F100 shortbed 4x4, 397 cid FE, headers, Street Dominator, 280H, 5 lug Dana 60, 4 speed
