Need traction!
 
Hey guys I'm new here and just got myself a built Silverado 2006 regular cab. It's Fbo, cammed, 3,600 stall, built tranny, possi with 4.56 gears, and ported and polished heads. I want some suggestions on what tires I should buy on 17 stock rims?

sticky ones. lol

Any street tires will just get annihilated with power, you might have to look traction bars and some sort of street drag radial.

Lol and what drag radial would you recommend? That will last the longest, I daily drive this truck so that would be a big help. Also how much are traction bars going for?

Look into a Nitto 555r don't know if they have your size and never personally used them but I've heard they do well and get good usage out of a set.

And depends what you go with, assassins run about 380 and Caltracs run about the same or a bit more if I remember correctly. I have a set of assassins and am happy with them.

Thanks, I'll look into the tires and traction bars as soon as possible!

I run M/T et streets, 295/65/15's.... And assassin bars FTW!

M&H make a 275/60/17 DR that I've been eyeballing.

DR's of any kind are useless when wet.
