[dracken1]

[Yoda]

did you import them yourself? :confused:

no bought them off a very nice man at HSL Racing http://hslracing.com/
website aint to brill but is very helpfull on the phone
a container load of stuff was held up 3 weeks whilst we waited for my wheels (i can still hear all the other people waiting for stuff cussing me)

his prices were the best i could find and even had quotes of upto £285 each for them
i got them for £200 each
and just think when i throw rubber on them it will have cost me £1000 just for the wheels...i am glad i didnt think about that before i ordered them otherwise they never would have been ordered ;)

price up some mickey thomsons or hosier tyres. they go up to 22 x 15"

i guess you'll be looking at 15 x 15's

[Spike]

oh oh oh shiny things !!! :p

[brandersnatch]

MMMM MMMMM!!!!! :cool: :cool:

[krammer]

a 365 or 375 x ?? x 15

would like the highest profile i can find

dont suppose you can source any these sizes
need to be car tyres not 4x4 tyres

[DANNY]

thems going to take some spit n polish.

[Freak]

Very nice Yoda, very nice indeed :)
When's the other one gonna arrive?

[Otter]

365 or 375 on a 15"?

Have you a source of tyres for that size? Cos that's HUGE. Probably looking at a 30 to 45 profile if you can source them in a road tyre. Mined ewe you can get 295/50?x15 in ST for 4x4 (9.5x15).

[smeghead]

hmmm yoda i demand you send em over yer, so they can be fully tested in the interest of your safety ;)

[blackhack]

Quite pretty in a "Bling" sort of way.....Supose they'll have to do, if you cant get "Proper Ones"

[Bosun]

so what are your rear wheels like then..????





mmmmm shiney thingsmmmm

[Yoda]

have decided to pay a visit to northants tyres
and take the wheel with me and if the 445 x 15 fit and look ok them i am having em

[disciplekidd]

445x15?!
I thought a 250 rear tire was a symbol of mental illness!

[dracken1]

yoda. the best person to speak to in the whole country is drag race legend geoff hauser "Hauser Racing 01933 312 663" they build cars that use those big boys.
ensure you explain exactly what they are going on so they can tell you exactly what they recommend. as some mickey t's are street legal drag tyres with only a 2 ply sidewall. you may see them on drag cars/bikes in slick form with the wrinkles in the sidewall.... you do not want those
:D
or there is hoosier who also sell large tyres " Hoosier UK 0208 401 7394"

try geoff first. he's a great guy who i've met a few times when i used to drag race, never in the same class though. my best was a 11.022 in a 600 bhp 69 camaro. as opposed to his 8 something second sierra :(

You said you were getting some wheels, now correct me if I am wrong mate but they are simply beer barrels turned inside out are they not?

Nice mate, very VERY nice!

Ordered yer crate of autosol then?

I'm sure this sort of advice is reduntant with the level of knowledge on the forum, but make sure you get the best water-clearing tread you can possibly afford. I was talking to my dad's mate who used to be into hotrods, gave me this advice when I was thinkin of gettin' one after uni: A thin tyre will cut through the water fine (yes, less grip in the dry, but were not on the HOG forum here :p -cheeky!) whereas it is easier for a big wide tyre to hop onto the surface of the water and hydroplane, and you DON'T want that. the larger tread footprint means less force per square in the water has to support y'see.

there is only the one type available
i am off for a trip to northants tyres on saturday to compare the rims up against the 445 and see if it is ok
it is a car tyre and not a 4x4 tyre as well

[Friar Tuck]

It will help if they are round as well!
