I think that's the size I'm going to run for my front runners to compliment my 17s in the rear. I want to see if anyone has a picture of them on a challenger. I've seen some other cars with the 18in/17in combo, but none on Challengers yet.

 

Thanks.

^{tvrob runs a 17" rear with 28" slick and a custom made CCW 18" front skinny.  the fronts were custom done by CCW in order to clear the massive aftermarket brembo brakes on his challenger.  i will be at the track tonight with his car and can take some pics for you.}

cool, ya man, I'd appreciate that. I'd like to see how it fills the wheel well. Also, will you check what tires he uses on it? 

 

-Thanks

When did M&H start making 28" tall skinnies for 18" wheels? The 18" skinny is a radial and 26" tall.

I thought i saw a bias ply 18 inch skinny somewhere that was a 28 inch tall tire, but now i cant find it

the owner of CCW had a "special" connection to get them for tvrob.  they are a 28" tall bia ply to fit a 18" wheel.  i was surprised as well when i saw them.....

Pics or it didn't happen.....

[legmaker]

ok..... so this might be a bit tough to see, but these are them....... trust me.....

 

*although i know you never believe me erik, so i will get a better pic tomorrow when i get to the shop.  his car is still on the trailer in the shop.....*

 

[Hemi31]

It's not that I don't believe you Chris......but if we had proof we can call M&H and bitch that these should be available.

[legmaker]

[Chally]

[Hemi31]

WOW ......Awesome.......a new tire choice! Wish they had these back when we all ran spare tire rims.

[Shaggy SRT]

I figured they must have been a recent addition if you guys hadn't seen them yet. Good news for those on a budget for sure. For the amount of times I get to the track I should sell my welds and buy some spares and run these instead.

http://www.dragracetires.com has the same ones, they are slightly cheaper per tire ($184 vs $189) but the shipping to mid-US was a whole lot cheaper ($16 vs $66) - total delivered $464 vs $368, nearly $100 bucks.  Need to find some cheap    Bogarts for the front now.
